INTRODUCTION. 



HR, Delaware, Lackawanna, and Western Railroad Com- 
pany, in issuing its Summer Excursion Book for 1893, places 
before the travelling public, and particularly before the vaca- 
tionists, holiday-seekers, and those who are in search of a 
summer resort, a complete register of all the rural and urban 
spots in which the summer months may be spent that are 
available in the States of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York, 
along their line, between the cities of New York and Buffalo. 

A perusal of the following pages will suffice to show that many of 
the most famous resorts in these States are directly on the Lackawanna 
Line, so that special allusion to them will be unnecessary here. 

A brief description of each place is given, a larger amount of letter- 
press being devoted to those among them which rank as summer resorts 
of national fame. 

The illustrations given herein are reproduced from photographs 
taken of scenes along the railroad by the best artists in their respective 
localities, and are of a miscellaneous kind. Hereafter the book will be 
rendered doubly attractive each year by the substitution of new cuts. 

A feature that will commend itself at once is the exhaustive list of 
routes and rates that is given, and which can be utilized in connection 
with tickets purchased via the Lackawanna Road ; and those in search 
of rest, recreation or sport, have only to glance over the pages of this 
brochure, and from among the many mountain, lake and river resorts 
described, as well as those where wealth and fashion reign supreme, 
select a place to their liking. In fact, the Lackawanna penetrates a 
section of country so well diversified and so picturesque, that any person 
who has an appreciation of the Creator's handiwork, as displayed through 
almost the entire region traversed by this road, will be apt to reflect 
before making a choice. 

Great care has been taken in the compilation of this work, the 
Lackawanna's Initial Summer. Excursion Book, to guard against dis-' 
crepancies, and it is offered to the public as a reliable guide and woiik 
replete with interesting reading. 

The Company feels assured that the Public will appreciate the 
effort that has been put forward in introducing this book, and presents 
it to that public with the compliments of the Passenger Department.

Seneral (Information, 




- 



N LEAVING New York City, the traveller by the Dela- 
ware, Lackawanna and Western Rah. road is carried 
across the Hudson by .well-appointed ferry-boats, lighted 
with electricity, several of which are double-deckers with 
spacious upper and lower cabins. 

The boats depart from the ferry at the foot of Barclay 
^ Street, making the trip across in twelve minutes, and from 

that at the foot of Christopher Street, which is directly 
across from Hoboken in but five minutes. 

The Company's new terminus at Hoboken is a model of artistic 
beauty. The station is Gothic in design, with long sloping roofs, and 
on the northern side has a high, narrow tower, which adds greatly to its 
attractiveness. The general waiting-room is both large and airy. The 
natural-wood ceiling is supported by carved beams and arches, and the 
whole interior is of light wood, varnished and decorated. On the east 
side is the ticket office; on the south side a room for ladies and a 
smoking room for gentlemen. On the north side are entrances for 
Hoboken patrons, as well as for those who cross from New York by the 
two ferries. A good restaurant, where a buffet lunch can be obtained, 
is provided in the waiting-room, and confectionery, fruit, etc., is obtain- 
able at the counter adjoining. 

The baggage-room is on the northwest corner, and passengers and 
others will always receive prompt and polite attention and answers to 
inquiries from the employees in that department. 

Experienced and well-posted ushers are stationed at the doors 
through which passengers pass to the trains. These men give the 
inquirer any information concerning the arrival and departure of trains, 
and, before the departure of each train, call out the names of all the 
stations along the route at which stoppage will be made. 

The above-stairs portion of the station contains the headquarters of 
this railroad's branch of the Young Men's Christian Association, which 
are fitted up attractively. The room contains a rostrum and chairs 
enough to seat a large-sized audience. Meetings and entertainments are 
held at regular intervals, and much good results thereby to the employees. 
The conductors have a comfortably-appointed room adjoining, and a 

13 



14 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

furnished reception room. Baths, hot and cold, are provided. There 
is also a room in which all the men can meet for social intercourse, 
reading, playing games, etc. 

The large train-shed contains nine tracks, all of which are kept 
occupied the greater part of the time by the incoming and outgoing 
trains. 

It has been the policy of this Company to abandon regular train 
service on Sundays, and this has been found to work to the best advantage. 
By this policy the men are enabled to gain the rest which, it is believed, 
all men should have on the Seventh Day, and they are better fitted to 
render more faithful service as a result. Only newspaper and milk trains 
are run on Sundays, and this cannot very well be avoided. 

The motive power and rolling equipment of the Delaware, Lacka- 
wanna and Western are of the most approved types. The locomotives 
are built for speed, and with a view to hauling capacity. Spark-arresters 
and extension fronts are being applied to all of those engines that 
were built prior to these innovations in modern mechanics, and all new 
engines are fitted with these appliances when built. 

The Company is so rapidly replacing all its old passenger coaches 
with new cars, that scarcely any old rolling stock is now in use. These 
new coaches are mounted on trucks having steel-tired paper wheels. 
The exteriors are painted in the Company's standard color, dark 
green, while the interiors are finished in polished mahogany, and have 
comfortable, high-backed seats, upholstered with maroon plush. The 
Company has adopted the Pintsch system of compressed gas for illumina- 
tion. Each car is fitted with globes containing four burners, from 
which a clear, white brilliant light is obtained, that enables passengers 
to read in any part of a car without straining the sight. The gas is 
made at the plant recently built at Hoboken, and is carried beneath the 
cars in tanks that are re-charged when necessity requires. 

It is the opinion of experienced travellers that no railroad in this 
country runs better equipped, or has more easy-riding cars than these. 

On all through express trains the modern vestibule attachment is 
used, and Pullman's best drawing-room parlor and sleeping cars are run. 

The Lackawanna is a double-track line to Buffalo, and is the shortest 
route running between New York and that city. The road-bed is 
heavily ballasted with gravel and sand, and is of unusual firmness. The 
heaviest steel rails are used to accommodate the additional weight of 
the constantly improving motive power and rolling stock. 

By reason of these improvements travelling on this line is accom- 
panied with all the elements of comfort and ease available on a result of 
skillful engineering and car-building, and this is materially added to by 
the utilizing of anthracite coal in the locomotives, which affords greater 
immunity from the inconvenience caused by sparks, cinders, dust and 
smoke than the use of bituminous coal. 



Morris t™ Essex Division. 



From HoBOKEN the Morris and Essex Division extends westward. 
One line runs by way of Morristown, taking in the most beautiful 
and healthful resident-section of Northern New Jersey. The Boon- 
ton Branch diverges in a northerly direction after leaving the big 
Bergen tunnel at West End, touching at Paterson and Boonton, crossing 
the former line at Denville and again connecting with it at Dover, from 
which places both lines are operated as one westward to Washington, 
Warren County, N. J., seventy miles from Hoboken. The first station 
in New Jersey, beyond Hoboken, is 

HARRISON. Altitude, go ft. 

7 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 15 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 25 cts. 

Formerly this place was called East Newark. It is situated in 
Hudson County, and borders on the Passaic River. Manufacturing 
iudustries hold sway here, and the town is better known thereby than 
otherwise. Across the Passaic River, which is spanned by a new iron 
girder railroad bridge, is 

NEWARK. Altitude, go ft. 

8 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 15 cts.; Excursion ticket, 25 cts. 

This city is the commercial metropolis of New Jersey. It is situated 
on the west bank of the Passaic River, upon which craft of all kinds ply, 
and affords important communication with New York through Newark 
Bay and Staten Island Sound. 

Newark is one of the oldest cities in the State. It covers a large 
area in Essex County, and ranks as one of the most important manu- 
facturing centres of the United States. Its iron and leather industries 
are of great commercial importance. 

The population is over one hundred and eighty thousand. 

Broad Street, running north and south through the city, is one of 
the most attractive thoroughfares in the country, containing many great 
business houses, elegant residences, and churches. Washington Park 
and Military Park, with their numerous stately elms, are the pride of 
Newarkers. High Street is famous for the beauty of the architecture of 
its numerous costly residences. 

15 



16 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

The extreme northern, southern, and western sections of the city are 
largely occupied by residences, and Newark lays just claim to having 
clean and well-maintained streets throughout. 

The famous Passaic River course, where the National Association of 
Amateur Oarsmen occasionally settle their battles for supremacy, is sit- 
uated here, and the course is known as one of the best used for rowing 
contests. It is decidedly picturesque on the Kearney side of the river, 
and at intervals, along both shores, the boat-houses of the various clubs 
are located. 

All conveniences that any first-class city boasts of can be had here. 
These include gas, electric light, fine hotels and boarding-houses, good 
street car systems, theatres, athletic clubs, and churches of every denomi- 
nation. The drives in all directions are pleasing. 

Newark, too, is a healthful and well-governed city. Its death rate 
is low, and epidemics seldom prevail. Several first-class papers supply 
the news daily. 

The society of the city is most refined, and includes a number of the 
most famous families of New Jersey. 

ROSEVILLE AVENUE. Altitude, 1^3 ft. 

9 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 15 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 25 cts. 

Formerly Roseville was a suburb of Newark, but the phenomenal 
growth of that city caused it to be included in its territory. It is wholly 
a resident section, and stands high and dry at the summit of the heaviest 
grade on the division. The houses are tastefully built, nearly all of them 
having gardens around them. Roseville Avenue is destined to become the 
most thickly settled part of the city, and residences are increasing with 
a rapidity worthy of a western boom. At this station the Bloomfield 
Branch leaves the main line. The first stop is at 

WATSESSING. Altitude, 133 ft. 

11 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 23 cts.; Excursion ticket, 40 cts. 

Here there is but a small settlement and a few farms. This is a 
congenial spot for quietude, and the residents have all the desirable ele- 
ments of sociability. An important and progressive village just beyond 
it is 

BLOOMFIELD. Altitude, 124 ft. 

12 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 25 cts.; Excursion ticket, 45 cts. 

The history of this town is associated with Revolutionary times, and 
it is among the best known places in the State. Although the enterprise 
of modern civilization has imprinted itself in every section, yet there are 



SUMMER EXCURSION ROUTES AND RATES. 17 

some old-fashioned houses and other landmarks which serve to remind 
one that Bloomfield was on record a century ago. At the head of the 
park stands the old church, a sacred pile that for more than one hundred 
years has stood to the glory of God. For many years this has been the 
favorite resort of summer visitors. It is rich in its arboreal growth, has 
the fine roads, good society, and all the elements that arise from thrift 
and progressiveness. Bloomfield is the home of many prominent 
business-men, and the residences, in many instances, are both sumptuous 
and costly. 

Adjoining Bloomfield, and but one mile beyond it, is 



GLEN RIDGE. Altitude, 170ft. 

13 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 27 cts.; Excursion ticket, 47 cts. 

It can be consistently said that this is one of New Jersey's beauty 
spots. Built, as it is, upon a hill which commands a charming view of 
the surrounding country, an attractiveness is given it that favors but 
few places in this region. Ten years ago Glen Ridge was little more 
than a wooded slope. Wealth and enterprise have developed the avail- 
able acres, and the work of improvement is still progressing. This is a 
village of handsome residences, grassy lawns, park-like estates, and fine 
roads. The residents, for the most part, are New Yorkers, and these 
have all the push that characterizes the wide-awake Gothamite. 

Glen Ridge is a pleasant and a convenient spot in which to spend a 
summer. The last station on the branch is 



MONTCLA1R. . lltitude, 239 ft. 

14 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 30 cts.; Excursion ticket, 50 cts. 

It would be difficult to describe the numerous attractions of this 
famous and widely-known town. From the very spot where the loco- 
motive ceases to pant, at the end of its journey, the magnificence of 
Montclair begins, and does not end until the eye scans the landscape 
from all points of the compass. The town is built on the summit of a 
spur of the Orange Mountains, and when it was found that the limited 
space allotted it was insufficient for further growth, a long stride toward 
the valley westward was begun. 

The business section of the town is confined to one quarter. Out- 
side of this the remaining territory is given up to palatial residences 
which occupy commanding sites, and which are surrounded by acres of 
green lawns and shrubbery. The roads are macadamized, and lead off 
into a country both wild and beautiful. The grandeur of the extended 
view from the mountain is universally acknowledged. 



18 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

Montclair is remarkable for its healthfullness and pure water, and is 
cool and breezy in the summer season. A sojourn here creates a desire 
for a renewal of the experience. 

VERONA AND CALDWELL 

are villages beyond Montclair, which are not on this line of railroad, but 
communication with them is attained by a stage route that connects 
with all Lackawanna trains at Montclair. The stage fare is 10 cents. 

Mention is made of these places as they are widely known and ap- 
preciated for their remarkable health-possessing qualities, and the pictur- 
esqueness of the surrounding country, together with their adaptability 
for summer residence. 

Returning again to the main line, the next station beyond Roseville 

Avenue is 

GROVE STREET, EAST ORANGE. Altitude, 172ft. 

10 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 20 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 30 cts. 

It may be stated that the thickly settled region, familiarly called 
" the Oranges,." extends from Grove Street to South Orange. There 
are seven stations, ranging from one-half to one mile apart. These are 
Grove Street, East Orange, Brick Church, Orange, Highland Avenue, 
Mountain Station, and South Orange. 

They can be similarly described. In the first place, the distance from 
Roseville Avenue to South Orange is five miles, and it is like one large 
city with several railway stations. "The Oranges " are most delightful 
places of residence. On the north the famous Orange Mountains, a spur 
of the Blue Ridge Range, run off toward the northeast, and slope grace- 
fully toward the valley in which the city is partly located. Llewellyn 
Park is at the summit of the mountain, and is laid out witli every ele- 
gance of taste and effect in artistic landscape gardening. It contains the 
homes of wealthy people, and is acknowledged to be the most mag- 
nificent spot in New Jersey. Near by, from Eagle Rock, a view of 
25 miles around the country can be had. Thomas Edison, the " wizard of 
electricity", has a fine home in the Park, as also had the late General 
McClellan. The side of the mountain is flecked with imposing residences 
and finely laid out grounds. The south side of the city is also given up 
to these. One of the features that makes " The Oranges " so beautiful, 
is the custom of building homes surrounded by grounds, for nearly every 
one lays claim to some sort of a lawn or garden, and to a few shade or 
fruit trees. 

The commercial section is 'extensive, and includes a variety of stores 
and a number of factories. Hat-manufacturing is doubtlessly the princi- 
pal industry. The factories are confined to localities where they do not 
detract from the beauty of the residential section. 



SUMMER EXCURSION ROUTES AND RATES. I!) 

Here there are numberless churches of all denominations, and, 
a first-class theatre, the "Orange Music Hall." The "Orange Club," 
and the "Orange Athletic Club," whose sumptuous headquarters are 
at Brick Church, and whose grounds are at Grove Street, are among 
many similar institutions that have gained national repute. Another 
athletic club at South Orange is the "Field," which has fine grounds 
near the railroad, and in summer and fall the youth and beauty of the 
city gather there to compete at tennis and baseball. Here also is the 
"Essex Country Club; " there are numerous ball and bicycle clubs here; 
in fact, " The Oranges " excel in everything pertaining to athletics. 

" The Oranges " have always been famous for their number of wealthy 
residents, and for their fine society. The drives about the city cannot 
be excelled ; the roads are broad, macadamized, and well shaded. They 
enjoy a good supply of pure water, and when the present sewerage system, 
now under construction, is completed, the advantage of good drainage 
will be included. The city is lighted with gas and electricity. 

Any place in " The Oranges " is desirable for summer sojourning, and, 
as a residence centre, is most convenient for those who desire a country 
home, and whose business transactions bring them almost daily to town. 

South Orange is the terminus of many trains running only for the 
accommodation of Newark and Orange traffic. Forty trains in each 
direction is the service which the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western 
affords. 

MAPLEWOOD. Altitude, 131ft. 

16 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 45 cts.; Excursion ticket, 65 cts. 

A very pretty spot for persons who delight in beautiful scenery is 
Maplewood. Its location, at the base of the mountain, gives it a wild 
charm. As yet the village has not developed to any great size, but it 
has several pretty cottages situated on well made streets, and here there is 
plenty of shade. The scenery about Maplewood is charming. It has 
excellent water, fine drives, and pure mountain air. For a summer 
vacation spot, it ranks among the most desirable places. 

WYOMING. Altitude, r 5 oft. 

17 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 50 cts.; Excursion ticket, 70 cts. 

Wyoming is a charming little town, situated right on the side of the 
mountain. At this point the " first mountain " turns directly northward. 
Here are many beautiful homes, with spacious grounds, in the midst of 
a high-wooded slope, where all is wild and picturesque. The scenery 
from Wyoming is charming, and never grows tiresome. There is not an 
objectionable feature in the town or neighborhood. It is essentially a 
home spot, and persons who go there never regret it afterwards. 



20 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

MILBURN. Altitude, 145 ft. 

17 mile? from New York ; Single ticket, 50 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 75 cts. 

This is an old-fashioned town with quaint houses, whose style of 
architecture suggests a half-century or more ago. It even* possesses 
the conventional mill-pond, which adds to its antiquated appearance. 
Milburn has always been a popular place for summer boarders. It is 
surrounded by farms, and has good boarding-houses in town. An 
excellent supply of water is one of the essential features of the place, and 
the well-cared-for roads are known all over the State. The terminus of 
the Milburn bicycle course is here, and in the season wheeling never 
ceases. 

SHORT HILLS. Altitude, 206ft. 

18 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 55 cts.; Excursion ticket, 80 cts. 

Short Hills has one specialty to recommend it. As a place of resi- 
dence it is charming. Situated in a large park, the residences, all of 
which are palatial, occupy plots, around which wind smooth, mac- 
adamized roads. There are no fences roundabout, and every house has 
a well appointed stable attached. The aim of the individual who estab- 
lished Short Hills has been carried out well. It is for homes only, and 
not a single place of business is connected with it. A few years ago this 
charming spot was but a wooded slope. Enough of the grand old forest 
trees have been preserved to afford a pleasing shade, that in summer 
almost hides the houses from view. 

HUNTLY. Altitude, 246 ft. 

20 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 55 cts.; Excursion Ticket, 80 cts. 

A little station on the mountain, established to accommodate the 
few people who reside there. A fine view of the valley can be had here

21 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 55 cts.; Excursion ticket, 80 cts. 

There is no place on this line that can lay claim to more advantages 
than Summit. As its name implies it is situated on the brow of the 
second mountain and is reached after the hard climb of a grade that 
begins at Milburn. 

This village has developed solely on its own merits. Its growth 
has been strong and so far shows no signs of abating. Backing the de- 
velopment of Summit are men of wealth and thrift and the houses that are 
in course of erection are attractively laid out, and its macadamized streets

are of the finest and most elaborate kind. At present there are over 
'fifty of them. Owing to its altitude Summit is a bracing spot in 
which to spend the summer. The air is always fresh and salubrious, 
and on that account persons afflicted with pulmonary troubles have 
made it their permanent home. In summer the population generally 
doubles. All the hotels and boarding houses, of which there are many of 
the first class, are full, and the place presents a lively appearance. 
Many of the permanent residents rent their homes for the season, and 
there is often more demand for these than supply. Looking northward

from Summit is a magnificent view of the Passaic Valley and Blue 
Ridge Mountains, and towards the southeast, Brooklyn, New York Bay 
and Staten Island can be seen. The drives through the valleys and 
over the mountain are magnificent. 

Churches of the Episcopal, Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist and 
Catholic Faiths abound. The social centre is the Casino Club, to which is 
attached a theatre, bowling alleys, etc. This centre is made up of the 
prominent men of the place and is well patronized. The fresh air home, 
so well known, and with which many benevolent women of Summit are 
identified, is situated on Stony Hill south of Summit. The town is lighted 
with gas, and has a new and excellent sewerage system ; it is also supplied by 
the Commonwealth Water Company with pure water drawn from springs 
in the mountain.

At Summit the Passaic and Delaware Branch diverges toward the 
west and runs for 21 miles through a valley of unsurpassed beauty and 
loveliness. The first station is 

WEST SUMMIT. Altitude, 340 ft. 

22 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 65 cts.; Excursion ticket, 95 cts.

given up to agricultural pursuits. 

HURRAY HILL. Altitude, 251 ft. 

23^ miles from New York ; Single ticket, 70 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.00. 

The ridge that skirts the village on the east is from whence the 
place is named. Several elegant homes of New Yorkers are situated 
here and the view is extensive and very fine. The country is fertile and 
is studded with many prosperous farms. 

BERKELEY HEIGHTS. Altitude, 226ft. 

26 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 75 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.10. 

Until very recently this place was unimportant. A company having 
purchased a tract of land, has parcelled it out in building lots and laid out 
streets, and Berkeley Heights is soon destined to become a thriving spot. 

GILLETTE. Altitude, 213 ft. 

27 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 85 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.15. 

A quiet agricultural settlement surrounded by hills and containing 
charming patches of scenery. It is also a fine farming country and a 
healthful place for summer boarders. 

STIRLING. Altitude, 221ft. 

28X miles from New York ; Single ticket, 90 cts. ; Excursion ticket, $1.20. 

This place is associated with revolutionary history by having been 
named after Lord Stirling. Along the ridge of Long Hill are several 
pretty residences. The view of the valley for miles east and west is one 
of the best in Morris County. Many of the residents find employment 
at a silk mill near by. Aside from this, agriculture is the principal 
pursuit. 

niLLINGTON. Altitude, 2jjft. 

30^2 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 95 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.25.

LYONS. Altitude, 305 ft. 

32 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.00 ; Excursion ticket, $1.30. 

Lyons and neighborhood is devoted to agriculture. Though small 
and of little commercial importance, it is a splendid place wherein to 
spend a summer, as the surroundings are healthful and, here, farm life 
can be enjoyed without stint. 



BASKING RIDGE. Altitude, 373 ft. 

33 >£ miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.05 ; Excursion ticket, f r.40.

and may justly lay claim to be reckoned among the best. An old-fashioned 
style pervades this place which is full of odd buildings and quaint people. 



24 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

In the church-yards there are buried persons whose descendants reside 
in the vicinity and many of these headstones date back over ioo years. 
As a summer place of residence Basking Ridge will be found to be full 
of interest and very bracing. 



BERNARDSVILLE. Altitude, 366ft. 

35 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.10 ; Excursion ticket, $1.45. 

This attractive place, situated as it is in the midst of the Somerset 
County Hills, is frequently alluded to as the "Alps" of New Jersey and 
the name is not misapplied. Bernardsville is famous as a health resort 
and so popular has it become that several prominent families in New 
York own estates and spend their summers here. The estate of J. Cole- 
man Drayton is acknowledged to be one of the finest in New Jersey. 
This entire section is charming, abounds in wild scenery, and is breezy 
and salubrious throughout the summer months. The mountain roads 
are hard and lead in all directions through pretty villages and a fine 
farming section. A summer spent here invariably creates a desire to re- 
peat the experience. 

Within the past two years the branch has been extended seven miles 
further, taking in the towns of

GLADSTONE. Altitude, 230ft. 

\2 l / 2 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.40 ; Excursion ticket, $1.85. 

The general character of all these places is similar. The region, on 
account of the lack of railroad facilities until recently, is undeveloped, 
Peapack is quite a town. The Rockaway Valley railroad touches here 
on its way between Whitehouse and Mendham and these two lines are 
destined to build up this spot. Gladstone is an old place with a new 
name, and is a town that has made great strides since it obtained railroad 
facilities. The region is well adapted to summer recreation, as the 
drives are good, and many interesting places are near by. 

Returning to the main line the next station beyond Summit is

NEW PROVIDENCE. Altitude, 230 ft. 

22 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 60 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 95 cts. 

The village lies back about a half mile from the station. It is a farm- 
ing region and quite popular with city people who find it a pleasant spot 
in which to spend the summer season. 




Sfmmkk on the Passaic, Chatham, N. J. 



CHATHAM. Altitude, 231ft. 

24 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 65 cts.; Excursion ticket, fi.oo. 

This ancient town has always been held in high esteem by those who 
return every year to spend the summer. It has much to recommend 
it. The Passaic River flows through it, and affords good fishing and 
boating; the drives through the valley and over Long Hill are delight- 
ful. The Chatham Fish and Game Protection Association, which has 
recently erected a handsome Club House here, looks after the fish and 
game in the vicinity. 

Stanley, situated south of Chatham on the eastern slope of Long 
Hill, is a settlement of pretty homes, and from its location a grand and 
ever changing panorama of the valley of the Passaic spreads out before

systems, and all the comforts of a large city are available. Here, 
building is very active and it promises so to continue. Madison rejoices 
in four churches and the Webb Memorial Chapel, an imposing edifice 
built and presented to the town by James A. Webb, Esq., a prominent 
and enterprising citizen. This place has been known as a health resort 
for a long time, and on that account may well be commended. It is no- 
ted for the number of its elegant residences, many of which are sur- 
rounded by large estates. Mr. H. McK. Twombley is now laying out, at 
enormous cost, over 200 acres as a park, and when the work has been 
finished it will prove one of the finest estates in New Jersey. The town

itself is in a valley and on both sides of the long sloping hills pretty homes 
are located. The view from these hills across the Passaic Valley is 
one of the features that captivates the seekers of suburban homes. 

Drew Theological Seminary, in the immediate vicinity, is well known 
and is visited by persons from all parts. Good roads and picturesque 
drives make Madison a pleasant resort for city people during the sum- 
mer months. 

CONVENT. Altitude, 379 ft. 

28 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 75 cts. ; Excursion ticiet, $1.15. 

The Convent of St. Elizabeth, a large educational institution con- 
ducted by Sisters, is located in plain view of the railroad, and from this 
the station derives its name. 



HORRISTOWN. Altitude, 379 ft. 

30 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 80 cts. ; Excursion ticket, $1.25. 

This old town, so prominently associated with the history of the 
Revolutionary War, scarcely calls for any introduction here. 

The place may justly lay claim to never having rested upon its past 
record. Ever since chosen as the headquarters of the Continental Army 
by Washington, its fame was established, and the associations of those 
stirring times of our nation's history are still cherished by the descend- 
ants of many of the gallant soldiers who took up arms and fought for 
their independence under the leadership of General Washington. 

Not the pages of history alone point to Washington's association 
with Morristown, but his headquarters, situated on an eminence in the 
northern part of the city, have been preserved, and since they came into 
the possession of the State, more land has been added which has been 
laid out in a beautiful, grassy lawn, and broad paths skirted by shade 
trees. Cannons that have, from time to time, been used in the defence 
of the nation and which were individually presented, are mounted and 
frown threateningly around the quaint old building. The national em- 
blem is spread to the breeze daily, not only to indicate the spot, but also 
to show that the patriotism of our fathers is still ablaze in the breasts of 
their descendants. The headquarters are filled with Revolutionary relics, 
pictures, arms and accoutrements of war, and a day given to investiga- 
tion there is one well spent. All that is required of the visitor is to register 
his name, and a care-taker will show him around. 

Fort Nonsense, where Washington's guns were planted, is at the 
summit of the highest hill in town. There a survey of the valley and 
surrounding country was made arid a careful watch kept for the appear- 
ance of the enemy. The site of the old fort is marked by a slab bearing 
a suitable inscription. Morristown now has a population of nearly 10,000, 



28 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

and is governed by a Mayor and Common Council. Every convenience 
that other cities afford is available here. The avenues are broad, de- 
lightfully shaded, and well maintained. Some of the most magnificent 
residences in the country are located here, and they may be found in 
all parts of the city, on the neighboring hills, and in the suburbs. This 
entire region is a sanitarium, and no more healthful spot can be found. 
The population is made up largely of wealthy New Yorkers, and in 
summer it is the most sought-after resort within the same distance from 
New York. Manufacturing is not permitted within the'city limits. The 
Green is a public park occupying an entire square. It is shaded by 
stately elms, and is divided into fine walks. An elegant soldiers' monu- 
ment stands on the west side of the Green. 

The drives for miles around are most beautiful. Pocahontas Lake 
is a pretty sheet of water within the city limits, and contains bass and 
pickerel. It affords good sport for the angler, and the catches are often 
large. Speedwell Lake is another pretty spot situated about a mile out- 
side of the city toward Morris Plains, and offers inducements to fishermen 
who wish to try their skill. 

Mendham is seven miles from Morristown, and stages connect with 
all trains to carry passengers there. It has the distinction of being lo- 
cated in the heart of the mountains, and there is scarcely a cooler or more 
bracing spot in all New Jersey. It is renowned as a healthy spot, and 
also for the long extended view over valley and lower mountains. This 
place is nothing but an old-fashioned village, filled with quaint houses, 
honest people, fertile farms and perpetual happiness. If Mendham had 
first-class railroad facilities it would prove a dangerous rival to all other 
places in the State within the same distance from New York. In the 
warmer months it is filled with summer boarders and its attractions are 
almost without limit. 

MORRIS PLAINS. Altitude, 403 ft. 

33 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 90 cts. ; Excursion ticket, $1.35. 

Many people regard this as being the most beautiful spot along this 
line. It derives its name from the fact that the town is built on 
a high plateau, surrounded on the north and west by mountains. Sum- 
mer here is delightful, on account of the breeze having a clear sweep 
across the plain. The soil is sandy, and within an hour after a heavy 
shower, is very often as dry as though there had been no rainfall. For 
this reason the entire section is remarkably healthful. The roads are 
splendidly kept up, and driving is a luxury. A mile back from the 
station an imposing building stands; this is the State Hospital for the 
Insane. Morris Plains is composed nearly entirely of fine buildings, 
owned and occupied by well-to-do citizens. There is a small lake within 
the village limits, where boating and fishing can be enjoyed.

MOUNT TABOR. Altitude, 531 ft. 

36 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $ 1.00 ; Excursion ticket, $1.40. 

Mount Tabor has become famous on account of the annual gather- 
ing of the Methodists, who hold their camp meeting exercises here, 
and enjoy a quiet sociability in accord with their religious precepts. It 
is one of a number of picturesque peaks that jut out from the Blue 
Ridge Mountains. The mountain slope is dotted here and there with 
pretty cottages owned by members of the Methodist faith, and occupied 
by them nearly all summer. Life here is calm and enjoyable, and the 
place is restricted against all nuisances and disorder. 



' DENVILLE. Altitude, 520 ft. 

37 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.00 ; Excursion ticket, $1.50. 

This is a quiet farming district, of few inhabitants, and for a person 
of an agricultural turn of mind it- may well be recommended, for here all 
its attendant luxuries, such as fresh eggs, milk, etc., can be had. A 
short branch road connects here with Boonton, and the run between these 
points occupies but fifteen minutes. 



ROCKAWAY. Altitude, 55 6ft. 

39 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.05 ; Excursion ticket, #1.60. 

A good deal of life is to be found in this bustling little village of 
manufacturing industries. Rockaway is prettily situated, partly in a 
valley and partly'on a side hill. The Rockaway River flows through it, 
lending to the picturesqueness of the place. The village boasts of 
several good stores, and in summer is a favorite spot in which people 
can spend a vacation. 



The attention of the reader is now directed to the Boonton Branch, 
which meets the Morris and Essex division at Dover, the next station 
beyond Rockaway, where both lines continue westward as one. 

After leaving Hoboken, the first station west of the Hackensack 
River is 



KINGSLAND. Altitude, 25 ft. 

8 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 25 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 35 cts.

The country about here is attractive, and the pretty village that is 
growing about the railroad testifies to its healthy popularity. A very 
pleasant summer can be spent here in driving and roaming about the 
country. 

DELAWANNA. Altitude, 53 ft. 

10 miles from New York; Single ticket, 35 cts.; Excursion ticket, 45 cts. 

A quiet spot, of great beauty, and few inhabitants, bordering on 
the Passaic River, which at this point assumes a picturesqueness that 
at once charms the newcomer. Boating, bathing and fishing are among 
the pleasures peculiar to this place. 

PASSAIC. Altitude, 97ft. 

11 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 40 cts.; Excursion ticket, 55 cts. 

Passaic is one of the three important cities on the branch. It con- 
tains a population of over 20,000, and is a thriving city, where enterprise 
carries everything before it towards prosperity. The city contains many 
miles of broad, well-shaded streets, and is famous for the large number 
of its elegant residences. No city in New Jersey has enjoyed a more 
wondrous and continued growth. Here are churches of all denomina- 
tions, a theatre, athletic clubs, etc. Although Passaic is a city, it 
attracts hundreds of city people each recurring summer. 



CLIFTON. Altitude, 121 ft. 

13 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 45 cts.; Excursion ticket, 65 cts. 

The village of Clifton lies to the eastward of the railroad and is as 
pretty and well laid out as any in the State. It is noted for the number 
and variety of its shade trees and the quiet character of its inhabitants. 



PATERSON. Altitude, iSS ft, 

15 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 50 cts.; Excursion ticket, 70 cts. 

Paterson is called the "Lyons of America, " on account of its immense 
silk industries. It is one of the largest cities in New Jersey, and in the 
importance of its industries, probably ranks second: principal among 
these is the building of locomotives. The Delaware, Lackawanna & 
Western railroad runs along the western section of the city and plays an 
important part in its commercial welfare. A tour of the manufactories

is not only interesting but instructive. The high falls of the Passaic, 
famous throughout the country, are also worthy of a visit on account of 
the great beauty of nature's handiwork. 



WEST PATERSON. Altitude, 188/t. 

16 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 50 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 70 cts. 

A suburb of Paterson, just outside the city limits. 

LITTLE FALLS. Altitude, 187 ft. 

19 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 65 cts.; Excursion ticket, 80 cts. 

This pretty little village, the honors of which are divided between 
manufacturing and agricultural pursuits, can be cheerfully recommended 
as a place of resort, at once pleasing and refined. Here all the com- 
forts of country life await the stranger, and the fertile farms that dot the 
valley supply vegetables, milk and eggs in abundance. Little Falls turns 
out a great amount of carpeting every year, and the falls here are the 
attraction of the manufacturer. The angler, too, can enjoy himself, and, 
if fortune favors, may find good luck in casting his line in the Passaic; 
black bass fishing is not only good at this point, but the place is also 
known as being one of the very best along the river. The angling 
grounds are above the falls. 

MOUNTAIN VIEW. Altitude, 175ft. 

21 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 70 cts.; Excursion ticket, 90 cts. 

The name of this spot originates from the fact that it is in full view 
of the Blue Ridge mountains. It is a farming country whose chief at- 
traction is pure air, beautiful scenery and good drives. 

LINCOLN PARK. Altitude, 174ft. 

23 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 75 cts.; Excursion ticket, 95 cts.

82 DELAWARE LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

BOONTON. Altitude, 410ft. 

30 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 80 cts. ; Excursion ticket, $1.25. 

Boonton is among the oldest towns in the State. It is beautifully 
situated on a mountain side and commands a view extending over 15 
miles across the Passaic Valley. In fact the valley scenery from Boonton 
captivates strangers who come into the town, and it would be difficult to find 
anything more magnificent. There is a wild grandeur about the Rock-

away River as it flows down the mountain through the town and then 
breaks into foaming cascades as it tumbles along the ravine, winding in 
many directions in descending to the valley. The Rockaway River at 
Boonton affords wild views that are seldom equalled within the limits of 
civilization. Boonton was at one time a great iron manufacturing centre, 
but of late years this industry has fallen into decay. As a place of resi- 
dence it is superb, the society is good, the surroundings are salubrious, 
and the air is permeated with the odor of pine from the mountains. 



SUMMER EXCURSION ROUTES AND RATES. 33 

As a summer resort this town is almost too well known to need recom- 
mendation, and the city people who spend the hot months here do not 
seem to be able to get back again soon enough. 

Denville, where the Boonton . Branch tracks cross the M. & E. 
Division, is 35 miles from New York by this line. After a run of four 
miles around the base of a high mountain both lines meet at 

DOVER. Altitude, 573 ft. 

39 miles from New York, or 42 miles by the M. . & E. Division ; Single 
ticket, $1.10 ; Excursion ticket, $1.75. 

On entering Dover one finds a busy center surrounded by high hills 
and delightful scenery. The large shops of the Delaware, Lackawanna 
& Western are located here, and a small army of men are kept at work 
the year round building new cars and repairing the old. Several other 
manufacturing industries are also here and are thriving. Dover is a 
great mining center, the adjacent mountains being filled with a fine de- 
posit of iron. The U. S. Government powder works are located at Pica- 
tinny and are one of the attractions to visitors. The city has fine schools, 
churches of all denominations, and an opera house. The mountain 
drives in this section are peculiarly inviting. The Rockaway River and 
Morris Canal both flow through the city. In summer Dover is one of 
the liveliest cities in New Jersey. 



PORT ORAM. Altitude, 642 ft. 

44 miles from New York; Single ticket, $1.15; Excursion ticket, $1.80. 

A quiet little farming hamlet which derived its name from being a 
station on the Morris Canal. 

After leaving Port Oram the Chester Branch runs eleven miles west- 
ward through a country famous for its rugged mountain peaks, green 
valleys and brisk streams. This entire section of Morris County ranks 
among the most healthful portion of New Jersey. There is no limit to 
the pastoral beauty of the scenery north, and the advantages Port Oram 
has for vacation enjoyment are numerous. The fertile farms offer every 
inducement to lovers of rest and quiet, and the hotels and boarding- 
houses cater especially for city boarders. In fact, each of the villages 
overflows with city people during the summer months. The water is 
pure and of good quality, the drives delightful and the air remarkably 
bracing. The villages on the Chester Branch are

MT. ARLINGTON. Altitude, 995ft. 

47 miles from New York; Single ticket, $1.25; Excursion ticket, $1.95. 

Mount Arlington is the station from which Lake Hopatcong is 
reached by wagon or stage and was established by enterprising citizens of 
Lake Hopatcong as a convenience in reaching trains. From this station 
are special stages to Hotel Breslin. 

HOPATCONG STATION (Lake Hopatcong). Altitude, 920ft. 

46 miles via Boonton, or 49 miles via M. & E. Division ; Single ticket, 

$1.30 ; Excursion ticket, $2.05. 

On alighting from the train the prospective sojourner expects to 
have his craving for a glimpse at this silver pool in the mountains 
satisfied at once. But in this he is mistaken. Instead, a little steam- 
boat awaits him at the landing, back of the station on the Morris Canal, 
and runs by a rather unusual route to all important points on the lake 
to deliver passengers. 

One of the novelties of the trip is a pleasant ride of a mile up the 
canal to the lock. On reaching the latter point the boat is " locked in " 
and raised up several feet ; and when the surface is reached, Lake Hopat- 
cong, with its clear green water, irregular shores and numerous rock- 
bound, wooded islands, presents itself with such suddenness as to com- 
pletely enrapture all who are contemplating a loiter of more or less 
lengthy duration on its sloping shores. And at the Lake Landing, 
one hundred and fifty feet north of station, are also other steamers — 
the latter belonging to the Lake Hopatcong Steamboat Company — which 
carry passengers to all points on the Lake. The boats of Lake Hopat- 
cong Line are comfortably appointed side wheelers, and at the present 
comprise the " Hopatcong," the " Musconetcong," and a steam launch, 
the " Naritcong. " In addition to these, a new steamer will be launched 
early this season.

The lake itself is partly located in Morris and partly in Sussex 
County. Its altitude is 920 feet above the sea level, and 36 feet above 
the Delaware river, 35 miles westward. The water, which rises from 
crystal springs, is transparently green, very deep and teems with game 
fish. Black bass and pickerel of enormous size are caught every season, 
and catfish of good weight are also taken. Hopatcong is the rendezvous of 
expert fishermen and fisherwomen, and it is the rare sport thus provided 
that attracts many an angler here each season. Howard P. Frothing- 
ham, Esq. , Mayor of the borough of Mount Arlington, himself an enthusi- 
astic fisherman, is the fish warden for Lake Hopatcong. He enjoys his 
office because, as a true sportsman, he likes to see game fish protected. 
Woe be to those caught by him fishing out of season, or in season, for 
that matter, using nets, fikes or any other unlawful means of trapping the 
fish. Persistent effort on his part has driven these scalawags out of his 
jurisdiction, so that legitimate fishermen who go to Hopatcong can count 
on having good sport and happy catches for their trouble. 

In this limited space it would be impossible to describe, and do 
justice to the famed beauties of this lake. It so closely resembles Lake 
George that it is frequently alluded to as the " Lake George of New 
Jersey." This allusion is justified, although Lake George is so much 
larger as to make the comparison hardly fair. Lake Hopatcong, however, 
has an advantage of fully 600 feet in altitude over its rival, and in the 
beauty of its scenery its equality is unquestioned. 

Indian tradition is closely associated with both lakes, although 
Hopatcong never had a Cooper to weave that subtle charm about if that 
will always cling to the " Horicon," as a result of the ingeniously con- 
structed plots and charming descriptions of Central New York given by 
the famous writer of " The Leatherstocking Tales." 

There is such a variety to the ever-changing scenery of Lake Hopat- 
cong, or " Hopachung, " as the red men called it when they settled on its 
shores. When the water is ruffled by the slightest breeze, its depth 
appears to lessen, and at sunset, when the surface becomes mirror-like, 
the shadows of the mountains seem to sink fathoms into the sparkling 
depths. 

About the middle of June, the influx of visitors commences, and from 
that time until September one round of gaiety succeeds another. The 
hotels and boarding-houses are full, the lake becomes dotted here and 
there with pleasure craft of all descriptions, from the frail canoe with 
sail and paddle to the costly steam launches. The Hotel Breslin, at 
Mount Arlington, is the largest hostelry on the lake. It is the abode of 
fashion and culture. The grounds surrounding it are terraced, and 
handsomely laid out with blossoming shrubs and flowers. The view 
from the long piazza over the lake comprises many pretty patches of 
scenery. 

For camping out this place excels all others. The wooded shores

offer the finest kind of seclusion; the bathing is good, and fishing adds 
materially to the pleasures of camp life. Not the least interesting feature 
of an evening on the lake is to watch the camp fires gleaming here and 
there along the opposite shores, and listen to the frequent camp cries of 
" rival " parties blending with song and musical accompaniment. 

The little hamlet of Mount Arlington is a collection of neat cottages 
bordering on the lake, and on the hill above it. One of these, the 
cottage of Miss Lotta Crabtree, the actress, deserves particular mention, 
because its interior is not only gorgeous in its appointments, but in the 
extent of its artistic arrangements it has been praised by every connois- 
seur in decorative art.

The walks and rambles are as numerous as they are beautiful, and 
while out on a tramp anyone fond of exercise is likely to run across an 
extraordinary number of people, and wonder whence these folks came. 
Anyhow, everyone there is out for pleasure or rest and each makes the 
best of his opportunity. 

A peculiar freak of nature here is Floating Island, at the southern 
extremity of the lake, near Shippenport. The island never appears over 
one foot above the surface of the water and is covered with tamarack, 
spruce and wild flowers of a curious growth in great variety. 

Raccoon Island is on the eastern boundary of Henderson's Cove and 
is covered with a heavy growth of timber. From the fact that human 
bones have been unearthed on the island, it is supposed that the Indians 
buried their dead there. 

Halsey Island opposite Nolan's Point is artificial. Many years ago 
the Canal Company, backed by proper authority, flooded the lake and

this caused the water to rise to a sufficient height to flood part of the 
main land peninsulars, thus forming several islands of which this is the 
largest. 

The River Styx, an arm of the lake that empties into it back of the 
mountain, is quieter than any place around. It is a romantic spot, and 
on account of the solitude that prevails is a favorite abode for such birds 
as herons, which stand in the water on one leg, heedless of all that sur- 
rounds them.

Lake Hopatcoug, N. J. 



Henderson's Cove is probably the most beautiful spot on the lake; it 
is made so by the rugged Bluffs that overhang it, which are covered by 
a hardy growth of oak and hemlock. Trips by boat to the Cove are one of 
the fascinating pleasures of life here. 

The lake finds its outlet by the Musconetcong River, which flows 
an irregular course and empties into the Delaware, 40 miles distant. At 
times the Canal Company utilizes the water as a means for feeding the 
Canal, and at such times the lake surface recedes two feet or more. 

STANHOPE. Altitude, S71 ft.

Stanhope has become known, not on account of its iron-smelting

" Restless and sparkling, its silvery sheen, 
Reflects the bold hills in a setting of green." 

This pretty sheet of water, almost circular in shape, boasts of being 
one of the most delightful lakes near New York. It is the resort of 
many people who love to enjoy the summer season surrounded by pleas- 
ant associates in an atmosphere of pure, health-giving air. The 
beauties of Budd's Lake are always enjoyable, and there is no monotony

in a sojourn there. The man who likes fishing here may gratify his 
whim by dropping in his line and hauling out vigorous black bass or 
pickerel. Both these voracious varieties are ready to meet the angler 
half-way and take the alluring bait. The wonderful stillness of the 
water, especially at eventide, attracts the holiday maker, and boating is 
much indulged in. The conventional hammock can find no more de- 
lightful place to swing in than above the ruffled wavelets as, under the 
influence of a cool morning breeze, they ripple on the pebbly shore. 
Everybody comes here in happy expectancy, and, unless hypercritical and 
difficult to please, is not disappointed, except, perhaps, at the too short 
summer which gives way to breezy autumn when the inevitable "good-

bye " to the mountains has to be spoken. The sportsman can linger 
longer and get well repaid for his pains. He may have enjoyed himself 
thoroughly and been fortunate with rod or gun, but the inducement of 
bagging a few ducks from the lake where they congregate every fall, 
often proves an attraction too strong to be resisted. 

WATERLOO. Altitude, 716 ft 

52 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $ 1.50 ; Excursion ticket, $2.25. 

Here, at the gateway to the rugged hills of Sussex County, begins the 
Sussex Railroad. The road is 26 miles long, and traverses a very 
picturesque country. It is wild, full of little lakes, ponds and silvery 
streams, that furnish excellent fishing. On account of the mountainous 
character of the neighborhood, game of all sorts abounds. The par- 
tridge is frequently seen along the highways, and, during the fall — 

" Up from the stubble gets the quail, 
I hear the partridge drumming. ' ' 

Bears, too, are not strangers in Sussex, and scarcely a season goes 
by that some one does not have to recount the destruction of one or 
more of these furry creatures. The summer sojourner, of course, is not 
as eager to kill bears, as to roam about at will and avoid them. 
There is no danger, however, of meeting bruin in the summer months, 
as it is only in winter that he ventures within the bounds of civilization 
to forage for his provisions, and, satisfied by stealing a pig or two, 
he returns quietly to his lair. 

As there are innumerable farms and plenty of good hotels and 
boarding-houses, the region through which the Sussex Railroad runs is 
particulary inviting to summer vacationists. In fact, any person who 
appreciates a mountain summer, with pleasant surroundings, can make 
no mistake in giving any of the places mentioned a season's trial. On 
leaving Waterloo, the first station is

among other enterprises, and is a sort of distributing point for the 
farmers in that vicinity. A pleasant ride from here is over to Sparta, 
7 miles, where Morris Lake is situated among the hills. Swartswood

delightful. Swartswood Lake is regarded by some as being the prettiest 
in all New Jersey. It is filled with game, fish, and its surroundings are 
wild and charming. Camping out gives so much pleasure here that 
never a season passes without it. The island on the lake is a favorite 
spot on which to pitch tents.

HACKETTSTOWN. Altitude, 564 ft. 

57 miles from New York; Single ticket, $1.65; Excursion ticket, $2.45. 

This is one of the oldest towns in New Jersey. It is situatedjn the 
midst of pleasant surroundings, and is an enterprising village of pretty 
homes and well shaded streets. It has a Mayor and Council and its 
municipal government is good. The Hackettstown Collegiate Institute, 
known throughout the country as a prominent seat of learning, is situ- 
ated here. During the summer season the town is very active omaccount 
of the influx of the city people who come to obtain recreation and 
wholesome air. 

Schooley's Mountain. 

Like an immense fortress lying some distance back from the town 
is Schooley's Mountain, a resort almost two well known to require de- 
tailed description. The mountain, when viewed from a distance, re- 
sembles a long plateau, so even is its summit, and it is covered with a 
rich growth of forest trees. Nature has been so unusually kind to this 
romantic spot that many wealthy gentlemen have selected it as their 
summer home. Among these are Alfred Sully, Esq., the well-known 
railroad magnate, and Mr. E. D. Stokes. The Sully abode is palatial in 
its appointments, and the grounds are laid out in bright flower-beds, 
arbors and shrubbery. Mr. Sully takes great pride in his valuable as-

sortment of grapes, and has one of the choicest graperies in the State. 
The air on the mountain is cool and bracing and is favorable for all pul- 
monary affections and asthma. There are no mosquitoes here, and 
slumber at night should always be between a pair of warm blankets. 
Heath House is the most prominent summer hotel on the mountain and 
is filled every season with the best class of city guests.

This is the most important city in Warren County and is noted for 
the number of its manufactories, principal among which are the piano 
and*" organ industries. The town is located at the base of Pohatcong 
Mountain and the valley is one of wonderful beauty and fertility. The 
city is noted for its fine Hotels and Summer Boarding Houses and for 
that reason is well patronized by out of town folks.

PHILL1PSBURG. Altitude, 218ft. 

82 miles from New York ; Single ticket, #2.05 ; Excursion ticket, $3.25. 

This city, one of the largest in the State and an important railroad 
centre, is~the last in New Jersey on the line of this road. It is situ- 
ated on'the Delaware River. In mentioning Phillipsburg it is sufficient to 
indorse it as a city where all conveniences afforded by other places of its 
size can be had. The manufacturing industries are important and rep- 
resent vast wealth. But, after all, this place ranks more as a railroad 
centre than otherwise. 

EASTON, PA. Altitude, 218ft.

Excursion ticket, $3.15. 

If this little town were referred to as a small edition of Sheffield, it 
should not be considered as inappropriate. The iron industry is all that 
is recognized here. The Oxford Steel and Iron Company controls the 
immense plant that turns out nails famous the country over. Nearly 
all the inhabitants depend on this industry for a living. The town was 
founded by the Scranton family, and its great success is principally due 
to their energy. Blairstown, the home of the Hon. John I. Blair, one 
of New Jersey's iron kings, is within a few miles of here, and is well worth 
a visit.

Just across the little Pequest River, on the three-arch stone viaduct 
bridge, is this quiet town. The attraction here is fishing, and the waters 
that furnish it are the Pequest River, Beaver Brook, and several small 
ponds. Among the natural attractions is Jenny Jump Mountain, close 
by. The region hereabouts is one of delightful simplicity, and profit- 
able farming is largely conducted. 



MANUNKA CHUNK. Altitude, 511ft.

Of all the resorts along the line of the Lackawanna, none is more 
strikingly beautiful than this great handiwork of Nature. Its praises 
have been sung for generations, and one never wearies of them. From 
the time that the Redskin ruled the domain the popularity of this grand 
chasm through the mountains was established, and each year the demand 
for hotel accommodation continues to increase. There is a peculiar 
rugged picturesqueness about the scenery that attracts the attention of 
the observer, and holds it until it is so firmly imprinted on the mind as

never to be forgotten. Residents love to tarry by the clear water of the 
grand old Delaware, and enjoy the pleasures of boating and fishing, 
and the transient visitor is willing to journey any distance, if it is only to 
spend a day here. Many excursions are run to Water Gap from differ- 
ent points during the summer months, and so popular have these become 
that they are booked for months in advance at the Company's passenger 
department offices. 

A critical review of this region, and the Delaware River, cannot fail 
to be of interest to the readers. 




Delaware Water Gap from the South. 



The Delaware River rises 200 miles northward, in two lateral branches, 
flowing from the western slope of the Catskill Mountains, 2,000 feet above 
the sea level. The western branch passes through a lake near its source, 
retaining, for a wonder, its quaint aboriginal name "Utsayantha. " This 
is described as a circular sheet of transparent water covering an area of 
70 acres and having an elevation of 1,888 feet ; a mirror of beauty in the 
wooded wilderness, so secluded that few save the red men have ever 
gazed upon its serene solitude. In its course the river hugs the base of the 
grand old mountains, older in date of upheaval than the snow-clad ' 'Alps, " 
which once formed a barrier to its passage, and rolled back the flood 
of waters, submerging for a long time the lesser hills and swelling plains 
that now, clad in verdure, adorn its borders.

The character of the rocks in this portion of the Blue Ridge is that 
of gray and red sandstone and conglomerates, containing white quartz 
pebbles of large size. The escarpment at the point of dislodgement is 
more bold on the New Jersey portion of the mountain, the mean of the 
angle for the entire elevation of 1,600 feet being about 70 degrees, while 
projecting cliffs, as seen from the gorge, exhibit sections of perpendicular 
descent. On the Pennsylvania mountain the general slope from the 
summit to the river is less precipitous: a mass of talus having been de- 
tached from the crest by the frosts of winter, and pouring like lava down

its sides, has covered the surface to the depth of many feet, concealing 
the rugged projections that characterize the face of the opposite moun- 
tain. 

From both the summits — Mount Tammany in New Jersey and 
Mount Minsi in Pennsylvania — views of great extent and beauty are ob- 
tained, but it is difficult to do them justice by mere description ; they 
must be seen to be fully appreciated. One overlooks an extent of 
country to the south as far as the eye can reach ; a scene of vast breadth 
comprising mountains and hills, villages and farmhouses, cultivated 
fields, groves of woodland and primitive forests — the river on its sinuous 
journey filling up the picture. It was upon the summit of Minsi that, 
over a quarter of a century ago, a romantic young lady lost her way, and

mill, which at one time it made busy as the machinery was put in motion 
by the plashing of the water over a big wheel. From the old mill the

the distance.

We have given a tolerably fair idea of the general character of the 
scenery and views at Water Gap, but its attractions, if they begin, cer- 
tainly do not end there.' There are numerous walks besides those we 
have named, and drives which we have not mentioned at all — long drives 
to the beautiful falls of Winona and Buskill, and short drives to roman- 
tic places with commonplace names; Fox Hill, the Knob, Lake of the 
Mountain and a dozen others. Stroudsburg is but four miles distant. 

The air about here is both pure and appetizing, and while the days 
are not hot nor humid, the nights are so delightfully cool that sleep of the 
kind that rests and invigorates is assured. The Water Gap is famous 
for its fine hotels, where the best service in the land is bestowed without 
stint. The drinking water, from Caldeno Creek, is very pure. 

STROUDSBURG, PA. . Utitude, 4.00ft. 

92 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $2.70 ; Special ticket, $2.50. 
Excursion ticket, $4.00. 

This old town is delightfully situated on Broadhead's Creek and is 
the capital of Monroe County. It is the first town of importance the 
road touches in Pennsylvania. It was founded by Col. Stroud, after whom 
it was named, and occupies the old site of Fort Hamilton. The place, 
which has a population of 2,000 inhabitants, is remarkable for its beauty 
as well as for the beauty of the surrounding country. Among the de- 
lightful bits of scenery named from the % town are the Blue Ridge moun- 
tains lying to the south and Pocono Mountain to the north. At the 
point where Broadhead's Creek flows through the town, two other 
streams converge — Mc Michael's and Pocono Creek. Stroudsburg has 
many interesting historical associations. The watering places in the 
vicinity always prove attractive to summer visitors. Among them are 
Lakes Pokonoming, Porter and Perch; and Bushkill, Buttermilk, Sawkill, 
Marshall's and Saw Creek Falls. Trains running westward begin a grad- 
ual ascent. The grade is steep and the powerful engines have to do 
their best in order to draw their load to the summit. This is Pocono 
Mountain. The next station is

is miles from Stroudsburg. 

Forest Park is situated in Pike County, Pennsylvania, and is a great 
health resort, and whose fame has been established long since as a fine 
fishing and sporting country. It comprises about sixteen thousand 
acres of land, diversified by mountain and valley, lake and stream. It is

56 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

rich in rural loveliness, and traditions and romance, and has as many 
historical associations as any spot in the land ; within six hours of New 
York or Philadelphia, it is of easy access to business men who are de- 
sirous of escaping from the annoyances of metropolitan life. Situated 
on a mountain top, it enjoys an ideal climate, and escapes the dense fogs 
which overhang the seashore and valley resorts, and is free from the 
dampness so common in all these places. Here a peculiar bracing tonic 
quality of atmosphere is to be found which has been remarked by all 
who have spent a season in the neighborhood. 

The summer breezes wafting over miles upon miles of forest, 
come heavily laden with the healthful fragrance of pine trees. It is 
situated far enough to the north to be well within the influence of the 
cool breezes which are so comforting in summer; yet it is far enough 
to the south to escape the unpleasant chills of more extreme northern 
points ; the season extends from June through October. The autumn 
is indeed in some respects the loveliest season of the year, a fact becoming 
more and more appreciated by lovers of nature in the fullness of her 
glory. To attempt to describe all the charms, or to enumerate all the 
beauties of this place is idle. You must see it to appreciate all its rare 
loveliness. It is delightful, and when you have once seen the beautiful 
colors, and the wonderful variety of the landscape, you will surely want 
to repeat it, for there is undoubtedly a larger number of rare and distinct 
qualities of beauty in combinations of rock, foliage, sky and water than 
in any other summer resort ; and, although, the mountains and gorges 
and wonderful vistas are interesting, the broad, smooth water of the 
various beautiful lakes, with long sinuous course between bold rocks and 
forested banks, forms the objective course for many a stroll. The 
rambles through the dense wood, midst the mosses and over the soft 
fragrant pine needles delight the old and young alike. 

Wild flowers grow in great profusion, and the variety is almost in- 
finite, from the delicate orchid found in the little savannahs in the pines, 
to the wild rose and the sweet grasses. Berries enough to keep one busy 
all the time — strawberries, huckleberries, blueberries, blackberries, etc., 
grow wild everywhere and in enormous quantities. 

These matchless conditions so forcibly displayed must be a convinc- 
ing argument of the desirability of Forest Park as a health and summer 
resort. 

Its mountain streams, fed by bubbling springs, are the lurking places 
of countless trout, and the lakes are the abiding places of the gamey black 
bass and pickerel and the sun-loving perch. In the forest, much of which 
is still in a primeval state, deer and bear, partridge and pheasant, grouse, 
quail, woodcock, foxes, rabbits, and squirrel abound, even within gunshot 
of the hotel. 

Six miles of Saw Creek, the finest trout stream in the country, runs 
through Forest Park, splashing through sunlight and shadow, with leafy 
nooks, vast pools of crystal clearness and vistas of water, sky and foliage

that are a revelation of beauty. Two-pound trout and even larger — 
think of it, gentle angler — are a common catch in this stream. Besides 
Saw Creek there are more than ten miles of other trout brooks, includ- 
ing a long stretch of the Bushkill. 

With all the natural advantages of Pike County it is not surprising 
that vast tracts of land have been purchased and set apart for the 
sportsmen ; in fact, this process of sequestration has resulted in turning 
whole townships into private game and fish reserves, and one may travel 
for miles through a series of fish and game parks. Four lakes within 
the confines of the Park afford unlimited opportunities for fishing and 
shooting water fowl. Five hundred feet distant from the hotel, and 
reached by a gentle graded and well wooded path, we find Forest Lake. 
It has a surface of nearly three hundred acres, and is fed by springs from 
its rocky bed. Black bass, upwards of five pounds in weight, are a 
common catch, and pickerel, perch and catfish abound. 

Next we come to Lake Taminent, one thousand feet distant, with an 
area of at least three hundred and fifty acres, its waters of crystal clear- 
ness, its bottom of solid rock, reaching a depth of seventy-five feet, and 
teeming with pickerel, averaging six pounds in weight, and yellow perch. 

Further on we come to Lake Minisink, famed for its reflections and 
its wild water fowl, one hundred and seventy-five acres in extent ; and 
yet a little further on is Deer Lake, named for the number of deer killed 
on its runways ; about twenty-five acres broad, both lakes averaging 
about thirty-five feet in depth and fairly alive with pickerel. Within an 
hour of the hotel is a fine reach of the Delaware River, noted for its 
scenic attractions and as a place for fly fishing for black bass. 

Immediately adjoining Forest Park on the north is the famous 
Blooming Grove Park. 

Forest Park is destined to become a summer and health resort as 
well as a fish and game park second to none in the country.

Creek, which at this point is decidedly pretty; it is famous for the fine 
trout fishing it affords. The Analomink streams, both celebrated 
for their trout, are near the village. The drives are magnificent for

a place of resort, containing many attractions. The Park House is 
situated in the centre of a beautifully laid out ground, with the river at 
one side and the mountains on the other. The altitude of the place 
gives it perfect freedom from mosquitoes and malaria, and in summer 
the temperature is delightfully cool.

in miles from New Y'ork ; Single ticket, #3.35 ; Special ticket, $3.15 ;

The visitor realizes that he is now very near the highest point of 
the mountain, because the panoramic view that spreads before his gaze 
calls attention to the fact. These mountains cross the northeasterly 
counties of the State and are spurs of that same great chain that traverses 
the Atlantic coast section from the Catskills in New r York State to the 
Black Mountains in North Carolina. The scenery in the Pennsylvania 
portion of the range is unrivalled, and in the way of sport with rod and 
gun is not surpassed by any other State. In standing at the top of 
Pocono Mountain which is 2,000 feet above tide-water, two entire 
counties are unfolded to the view, as well as the Water Gap and Dela- 
ware River. The air at this great height is strong and bracing, and, 
as it is introduced to the relief of the overworked seeker of health

and happiness it blows through the mountain pines which impart to it a 
resinous odor calculated to stimulate the appetite. 

Persons afflicted with hay fever and asthma should come here to get 
cured. Another feature that recommends this region is its absolute free- 
dom from the mosquito pest. As the thermometer rarely rises above 80 
degrees in the hottest weather, out-door life is always agreeable. At 
night log tires on the hearth, warm wraps and blankets on beds are in 
order.

In recent years the tendency has been to develop new mountain re- 
sorts. The success of Mount Pocono is fully assured, and persons who 
are satisfied with its healthfulness, its accessibility and adaptability to 
sport with rod and gun, have erected first-class hotels and cottages right 
in the heart of the wilderness. 

Among the numerous drives that have become popular are those to 
Pocono Knob, Buckhill, Paradise Falls and Devil's Hole. Here are

Scranton is the capital of Lackawanna County, Pa. Its coal and iron 
industries, have placed it in the foremost rank of manufacturing cities. 
Millions of people annually pay tribute to the output of coal from the 
Scranton region, and the steel rails that thread this continent from ocean 
to ocean, and from the Canadian border to the Gulf, are to a very large 
extent, produced right in the rolling mills within plain view of the Lack- 
awanna trams as they speed by. 

Scranton is also the metropolis of northeastern Pennsylvania, the 
third city of the State; it has a population of 100,000. Being located in 
the famous Lackawanna Wyoming Valley and on the Lackawanna River 
it occupies a succession of hills and eminences, important among which 
is Hyde Park Hill, from which a magnificent view of the city and sur- 
rounding country may be obtained. 

The city is supplied with good water and claims to he one of the 
best lighted places in the country. The hotels are good and well main-

tained. There are churches of all denominations, literary societies, clubs, 
both athletic and otherwise, and excellent street-car facilities. Several 
railways connect here, making it an important railroad centre as well as 
manufacturing town. Not the least interesting feature of the city is a 
visit to the rolling mills and giant coal breakers, which, when the busy 
season is. at its height, crush and prepare for shipment fifty-five thousand 
tons a dav. A visit to the subterranean coal galleries in the mines will 
prove an entertaining experience and one well worth the trouble. 




Woodward Bkkakkk. 



Despite the immense amount of manufacturing done here the city, 
unlike many others, is not permeated with smoke and gases, as might be 
expected. On the contrary the air is pure and the city is a very pleasant 
place to visit or^remain in at any season of the year. In fact Scranton 
contains as many magnificent residences and public buildings as any 
city of its size in the United States, and this bears the best testimony of 
its healthfulness that can be given. 

Among the resorts within short distance are Mauch-Chunk, with its 
great switchback, and gravity road to Honesdale. Numerous lakes in 
the surrounding mountains afford good fishing, black bass and pickerel 
being plentiful.

as beautiful a city as the Empire State can boast of. The city enjoys 
good water and the great manufacturing industries that have sprung up 
are due as much to this as to anything else. These industries first 
brought the railroad here, and so many lines centre in the city that it is 
fast taking rank among, the great railroad centres of this country. The 
Chenango and Susquehanna Rivers flow through the city and give it a 
pleasing picturesqueness. Elegant residences and fine streets attract 
visitors and a tour of the different districts meets with appreciation 
and approval.

and is in charge of a committee of ladies who direct it as an institution 
for destitute orphan children in the city and vicinity. Churches of all

by nature as an ideal summer resort. With its elevation of 1,750 feet 
above the sea, nestled among the mountains of Otsego County, near the 
centre of New York State, it has every natural advantage to make it a 
charming place in which to spend the summer. 

The summer season railroad connections make this spot of easy 
access from New York, as Pullman parlor car trains runs to and fro every

night and morning. The trip by the Delaware, Lackawanna and West- 
ern Railroad is through picturesque scenery, thus making a day journey 
desirable. Connections are made from Washington and Philadelphia, 
so as to render this the most desirable route from the south and south- 
west to Richfield Springs. Otsego Stage and Steamboat Company make 
direct connection with through trains on the Delaware, Lackawanna and 
Western Railroad for Cooperstown during the summer season. 

The scenery in and about Richfield Springs is charming. The 
wooded hills and cultivated plains spread a landscape which is truly 
inspiring to look upon, and wonderfully invigorating to pass through. 

Not the least important feature at this place is the number of 
drives through a picturesque country, upon well-cared-for roads, which 
enhances the pleasure, and makes the pastime very popular with the 
guests. Among others are the following: To Mount Otsego, Otsego 
Lake, Cooperstown, the Mohawk Valley, Richard Croker's beautiful 
Stock Farm, Henderson Home; the one most popular of all is around 
Canadarago Lake, a distance of twelve miles over a road as smooth as a 
floor. Canadarago Lake is a delightful place for boating and fishing. 
A pleasure steamer plies daily for public or private accommodation. 
The main dock is but one mile from the village. 

The erection of one of the most complete bathing establishments in 
the world, a few years since, has made the place famous as a water cure 
and bathing resort. The celebrated White Sulphur Spring supplies the 
new bathing establishment with mineral water, which is used for baths 
as well as for beverage with almost incredible results in healing and re- 
storing the feeble and infirm. Several prominent medical societies of the 
United States have met here during the past few years, and their 
resolutions concerning the baths have always been commendatory. 

The hotels and boarding-houses are good and numerous, and 
several may be found along the shores of Canadarago Lake. Churches 
of various denominations flourish, and the Springs boast of a daily 
paper.

Tully Lake Park was organized and is managed upon the plan of 
the Thousand Island Park at Clayton. It has thirty cottages built and 
owned by residents of Syracuse and New York City. Besides this, there 
is a hotel large enough to accommodate one hundred guests.

furnishes a large amount of commerce. The iron, beer, pottery, brick, 
glass and cutlery industries also play an important part in the city's 
prosperity. 

There are a great many churches and schools here, and no one with 
inclination toward religion or education need be without them. The

settled in 1797 by Dr. James C. Baldwin, and it derives its name from 
him. This is one of the pleasantest spots in Onondago County, and is

a half miles distant, and is a very pretty place. It lies on the east bank

Oswego is the terminus of the division and a pretty city it is. 
Situated right on the shore of Lake Ontario, which appears like a mighty 
ocean. Oswego is the city of "silver gloss starch," and as such it is 
known on account of the immense quantity of this commodity that it 
manufactures annually. The Oswego River divides the city and 
affords elegant residence sites on both shores. The lake front is also a 
popular place for private dwellings. Considering that the canal, lake 
and several lines of railroad furnish shipping facilities, it is not to be 
wondered at that Oswego is a prosperous and growing city. It has 
fine commercial institutions, banks, public buildings, and almost un- 
limited manufacturing industries. As a place of residence it has the 
appearance of an elegant and refined suburb, and the breezes from the 
lake render it delightfully cool and invigorating. In summer the tem- 
perature at the hottest rarely exceeds 70 . 

The celebrated Deep Rock Spring is situated here and for the 
accommodation of tourists and invalids a fine hotel has been erected 
upon it.

This place was once the home of Nathaniel Parker Willis, the poet,

Ithaca has been called the "region of cascades," and the name is 
certainly appropriate to the surroundings. It would seem as though 
the hand of nature has busied itself to an unusual extent in carving 
out of the rocks the irregular crevices through which the silvery streams 
of crystal water plunge and turn until they reach their natural level. 
In addition may be found a great many ravines which have a 
peculiar interest attached to them. These delightful works of nature 
seem to partake of a form of phenomena, and are all the more interesting

on that account. There are 96 falls by actual count which vary in 
height from 5 feet to 340 feet. One mile from the village is Ithaca 
Falls, 160 feet high, or 7 feet less than Niagara. The width of the fall 
is 150 feet. Nine miles from Ithaca are the world-famed Taughannock 
Falls that glory in being 48 feet higher than Niagara. 

All the falls are not directly within the town boundary, but there 
are fifteen close by, the height of each of which is over 100 feet. It is 
generally conceded that Cascadilla and Fall Creeks furnish the most 
enchanting of all the waterfall scenery. Taughannock Falls is the highest 
in the State, being 215 feet, while the rocks rise 145 feet above it. The 
falls and surrounding scenery are almost unapproachable for magnificence. 

Ithaca is situated at the head of Cayuga Lake, and has a population 
of 12,000. It is principally famous as the seat of Cornell University, 
founded by Ezra Cornell, whose idea is best expressed by his own words: 
" I would found an institution where any person can find instruction in 
any study." The University has turned out many a learned scholar, and 
is too well known to require a detailed description here. 

Cayuga Lake is one of the finest inland lakes that make Central 
New York so famous as a summer resort. It is fifteen miles long and 
reposes between high hills that stretch along its entire length, and 
far beyond to the south. It is, also, one of the most magnificent lakes 
in this country, being clear and of great depth ; it abounds in most 
entrancing scenery. Lake fishing, which is always a delightful 
pastime, is here indulged in every season by many enthusiastic fisher- 
men who invariably catch sufficient lake trout, bass, etc., to convince 
them that old Cayuga Lake is the veritable Mecca of anglers.

This is a small town, pleasantly situated, and is desirable as a resort 
for city people who enjoy quiet and good air. The valley along this 
section is famous for the cultivation of tobacco, and it is a common sight 
to gaze upon plants growing upward of six feet high. The industry of 
drying and curing the "weed" is both large and profitable.

Situated in the broad and fertile valley of the Chemung, surrounded 
by well wooded hills rising from four to six hundred feet, this city 
presents many attractions to those who are seeking pleasure, health, or 
even business. 

Here are gathered about 35,000 people, among whom are many of 
State and national reputation. The streets are shaded by grand old trees; 
the homes are comfortable and attractive, ^nd well-kept lawns on every 
side, are evidences of thrift and culture. 

Elmira is a city of churches, among the most notable of all the denom- 
inations is the Congregational Park Church under the pastorship of 
the Rev. Thos. K. Beecher. The First Baptist Church is also new, 
and of modern architecture. 

The New York State Reformatory, situated on a broad plateau at 
the foot of the western hills, is of much interest as illustrative of real 
reformation among the younger class of criminals. In itself, both in

architecture and location, it is a striking building, and well repays one 
for a few hours' visit. 

Of parks there are four. The most important is " Eldridge Park" in 
the northern portion of the city ; it contains about 40 acres, with a nat- 
ural lake of crystal water, half a mile in circumference; many miles of 
fine drives and walks; also pavilions, summer houses, a bear pit, and all 
requisites of first class pleasure grounds, which it is, not only for the 
people of Elmira, but for many cities of the surrounding county. 

Here about 20 miles of electric car roads run to and from all parts, 
as well as to the thriving village of Horseheacls, six miles north. 




At Work. 



In the northwestern part of the city is the Elmira College for 
Women. This educational institution is among the first in the land. 
Its location is high and healthy, and its grounds spacious. On East 
Hill, at an elevation of 200 feet, stands the Gleason Sanitarium where 
invalids may find skilled medical care, or the pleasure seeker a quiet 
summer home. 

The charming valley, at this point, is largely devoted to the culture 
of tobacco, and large crops are annually raised; and also vegetables of 
the finest quality. The "hill country" is given up to dairying and churn- 
ing, and its butter is gaining an enviable reputation for quality. 

The Chemung, an Indian word which means "big horn," is a shal- 
low stream, with a succession of rapids and long, still pools, known as 
"the Eddys." Above the city are some particularly fine bits of scenery, 
as the hills are very abrupt and wooded to the water's edge. Splendid

camping spots are to be found near which run good springs of clear water, 
and much of this best of summer pastime is indulged in along the pictur- 
esque banks. Black bass fishing is also good. A fair number of manu- 
factories are located here, and various industries are represented. Much 
material is shipped annually to all points of the surrounding country.

fully as well, if given a more pleasing name. Atlanta is a shipping point 
for an abundant supply of grapes which are grown around the village 
of Naples. 

WAYLAND. Altitude, 1,361ft. 

326 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $7.68 ; Special ticket, 7.00. 

We are now at the highest point on the Buffalo Division, and the 
magnificent view of the valley, with its rich and prosperous farms 
stretching for miles, invites the tourist to feast upon, if but for a moment, 
the grandeur of the landscape. It is not only on account of the fact that 
Wayland offers this graceful picture in the large album of Nature that it 
ranks as a prosperous and interesting neighborhood, but also because 
husbandry flourishes, and is necessarily foremost. Here the vacationist 
will find pure air, plenty of milk, eggs and vegetable produce, together 
with clear, wholesome water. Wayland excels in all these. The Port- 
land Cement Company has a large factory here, which gives the town 
just enough life to make it agreeable. 

IN THE GENESEE VALLEY. 

It is doubtful if the Empire State, famous for the number of its 
fertile valleys, can offer any other that presents so many charming 
characteristics as the Genesee. It is a series of magnificent farms, as 
fertile as any the world produces ; it possesses winding rivers and rapid 
streams that dance in and out of patches of woodland, meeting each other 



96 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

in unexpected ways. The fruit alone that is grown annually in this 
valley is sufficient to supply almost all the markets of the State; and, as a 
grain-growing country, it produces more for its size than any other 
valley in the world. In the spring the air is heavy with the odor of 
blossoms, and in the fall the red and golden fruit hangs in clusters in 
the orchards.

The approach to Dansville, from either direction, is through a 
country abounding in picturesque scenery, which apparently culminates 
in the surroundings of this hill-encircled town. Lying 400 feet below 
the railroad, it is enclosed on three sides by an amphitheatre of hills 
which, on either hand, stretch far away, and are lost on the distant 
horizon. Like a vast living panorama, hundreds of square miles 
of valley and hill are spread out before the traveller, who is both sur-

prised and delighted with the beauty of a picture of surpassing loveliness, 
rarely equalled in this or any foreign land. Nature is here more gently 
picturesque than rugged or grand. Although the hills rise upwards of a 
thousand feet, they are dotted almost to their summits with farms, vine- 
yards, and grain fields, which alternate with masses of evergreens and 
stretches of timber land. 

On nearer acquaintance many hidden attractions are discovered by 
the artist and the lover of the beautiful — wild, rocky ravines, with pre- 
cipitous sides and crystal cascades, deep gorges set with pine and hem- 
lock, numerous mountain streams and tangled undergrowth, where the 
silence of the forest is broken only by the song of the bird or the whirr 
of the partridge. Stony Brook Glen, similar in its rocky formation and 
waterfalls to Watkins Glen, a favorite resort, is two miles from the 
town ; winding roads lead over the hills in every direction and provide 
charming walks and drives without number. On the eastern hill-slopes 
are vineyards covering hundreds of acres, which are increasing yearly. 
This in itself speaks volumes for the healthfulness of the climate, for 
where grapes thrive miasmatic conditions are unknown. In the fertile 
garden valley a deep alluvial deposit furnishes rich soil for raising 
nursery stock — the chief industry of the town — in which many have in- 
vested capital; and so favorable are all the conditions of growth that in 
two years trees attain a size and strength that require three years in 
other nursery centres. This is the home of the famous Genesee white 
winter wheat, so successfully raised here in large quantities, and the 
grain fields at every season form an attractive feature of the landscape. 

The region within which Dansville is situated is salubrious. It is 
exempt from malaria, and the vital statistics justify its claim to favorable 
distinction in respect to diseases caused or prolonged by environment. 
This is probably due to its elevation above sea-level, swift running 
streams, dry, porous soil, evergreen forest growth, a climate equable and 
genial on account of its altitude, and more especially to the exceptional 
dryness and purity of the air. The Meteorological Bureau reports, and 
the weather maps of the Smithsonian Institute, show that the narrow 
strip of Western New York State, forming the northerly divide of the 
Alleghany chain draining into Lake Ontario, enjoys much less humidity 
than the surrounding country; indeed, not until one approaches the pine 
forests of Northern Michigan, or the equally inhospitable dry plains west 
of the Mississippi River, can there be found any such low average. It is 
only of this small section, within a region of twelve hundred miles of the 
Atlantic coast line, that this can be said. These combined influences 
make it a desirable place of residence or resort. And here on the eastern 
hill-slope, standing as a vision of hope and promise to thousands, is the 
Jackson Sanatorium, one of the largest and most complete health institu- 
tions in the world. Many are attracted yearly to this favored spot, not 
less by nature's ample provision of pure air and beautiful scenery than

by the opportunities afforded for recovery and recuperation under the 
care of skilled physicians. 

The mountain spring which supplies the Jackson Sanatorium with 
water, ranks as one of the most famous among home and foreign spas. 
Dansville has a population of over 4,000. Two railroads, gas and elec- 
tric lighting, telegraph and telephone, eight mails daily, eight churches, 
union school, an efficient fire department, good water power; chair, 
broom-handle, fruit-basket and reaper factories; extensive flour and 
health-food interests ; planing and foundry plants, paper and pulp mills; 
three weekly newspapers and three monthly journals. 

Electric street railroads are now in course of construction, and these 
will shortly be opened for traffic. 

No change of cars is required between New York and Dansville, and 
the trip may be made in 9 hours. Time from Buffalo, 2 hours. Pull- 
man cars are connected with all trains. 

Those who have had the good fortune to ride over the Lackawanna 
road by daylight, and are not prejudiced, agree that the view of the 
Genesee Valley, as seen from a car window, is not rivalled by any 
other landscape in this country. A glimpse of the valley is obtained at

MOUNT MORRIS. Altitude, 585 ft. 

348 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $8.18 ; Special ticket, $7.00. 

This delightful village is situated on a tableland, and commands an 
uninterrupted view of the valley. To the west may be seen the High 
Banks noted in history for the ravages of the red men whom General 
Sullivan was at one time commissioned to exterminate. The railroad 
crosses the Genesee River here. Mount Morris is a famous resort of 
the inhabitants of Buffalo, and in summer they collect here in great num- 
bers. A huntsman's club has been formed and is conducted with regu- 
lations similar to the Meadowbrook and other kindred clubs. The peri- 
odical "runs" are among the most exciting scenes that enter into the 
season's gayeties. 

Bass fishing in the Genesee River is excellent, and attracts many. 
From Mount Morris to Geneseo, the capital of Livingston County, the 
drives over excellent roads are pleasing. This feature, above all the other 
worthy considerations, forms a decided attraction. 

Extensive salt works are established here, and they form a principal 
feature of commerce. At Mount Morris connection is made with 
Western New York and Pennsylvania.

cattle pens are also among the company's possessions at East Buffalo.

It has been said that a person can start at a given point in the large

exaggeration is indulged in, however, when the statement is made that 
cars from every railroad of any importance in the land are constantly 
represented on some one of the vast network of rails laid within the city 
limits.

Buffalo plays an active part as a distributing point for grain and 
lumber, the latter trade coming largely from Canada. The wharves 
along Lake Erie present a busy aspect at all times, and a day can be 
well spent among the shipping. 

The wealth of the city is one of its most startling features, and 
millionaires are not by any means a rarity. The population aggregates 
about 265,000, which enables Buffalo to rank as the third city in the 
State. 

With a water front of two and a half miles on Lake Erie, as well as 
on the Niagara River, and its location at the foot of the chain of great 
lakes, the reason why it plays such an active part in the commercial 
interests of the country is apparent. 

The climate, on account of the influence of the lake winds, is 
naturally salubrious in summer. On the whole, the streets are broad, 
well paved and well lighted, and the city enjoys a good sewerage system. 
Large and stately shade trees gives Buffalo a pretty appearance, and 
especially delightful spots are the numerous parks and squares that the 
city is noted for. The public squares are named Franklin, Niagara, 
Prospect, Johnsons, Lafayette, and the Terrace. They were designed 
and laid out by Frederick Law Olmstead, who acquired fame partly by 
the architectural skill he displayed in Central Park, New York City. 

The number of public buildings and charitable institutions, and the 
beauty and cost of their erection, is a source of pride with the Buffalon- 
ians. As to private residences, the city can boast as many of great cost 
and beauty as any of its size in the United States. 

Passengers for Niagara Falls and points west change cars here. 
Connections are made with all other roads with little or no inconvenience.

►:FISHES IN LIFE COLORS:* 

" The Fishes of North America " 
By William C. Harris, Editor ''American Angler." 



This is the most comprehensive and expensive 
work on the subject that has been issued in America 
or Europe. It is a popular text book, containing 
kindergarten studies of eighty American fish, each of 
which are shown in an upright position, that of 
swimming, and extreme care has been taken not 
only to give the coloiatiou in life, but also, with dis- 
tinctness, the specific markings, including the exact 
number of spines or rays in the fin construction. The 
text consists of exhaustive biological notes 011 all the 
fishes of American waters that are objects of pursuit 
by anglers ; their habits, habitats and modes of cap-

Catskills, and more novelty.

ALEXANDRIA BAY, N, Y. 
THE THOUSAND ISLANDS. 

JUST where the blue waters of Lake Onta- 
rio find their outlet between Cape Vin- 
cent, N. Y., and Kingston, Can., the 
Thousand Islands of the St. Lawrence have 
their beginning, extending some forty miles 
down the river in picturesque groups, and 
forming in their entirety one of the lovliest 
and most varied fishing regions in the world. 

It is now hardly more than a dozen years 
since the Thousand Islands began to attract 
widespread attention, yet the visitor will 
find along the route of the steamer which 
bears him down the crystal current, numbers 
of large hotels, and hundreds of costly and 
palatial summer homes, which increase in 
numbers annually. 

The tourist portion of the Thousand 
Islands begins, practically speaking, at 
Clayton, the terminus of the Rome, Water- 
town & Ogdensburg Railroad. From this 
point steamers ply to Alexandria Bay, touch- 
ing at intermediate points. The first landing 
is made at Round Island. This is a promi- 
nent cottage community. It is non-sectarian, 
and numbers among ii.s permanent summer 
residents many prominent people from the 
large cities. 

Thousand Island Park, a Methodistic com- 
munity, is two miles below, and also has its 
hotel and numerous cottages, as well as a 
large "tabernacle." 

Central Park is prettily located midway 
down the American channel. 

About ten miles below Clayton, Alexan- 
dria Bay is located. In the immediate vicin- 
ity are many of the most costly and beau- 
tiful summer villas. The "Bay" is the 
focus of a large summer travel, steamers 
coming and going constantly. 

Near Alexandria Bay and like that village, 
also upon the mainland, is Edgewood Park, 
chiefly occupied by Cleveland families ; and 
one mile distant is Westminster Park, which 
has a good hotel and Presbyterian tenden- 
cies. 

The fishing at the Thousand Islands will 
always be its chief charm with the general 
visitor, and, thanks to the protection of re- 
cently enacted State laws and the activity of 
the Anglers' Association, the fishing is 
always improving. Boatmen, with safe and 
natty St. Lawrence skiffs, the most beautiful 
of all water craft, may be engaged at any of 
the hotels by the day or week. 



Daily excursions are made among the 
islands from all the hotels, upon swift and 
roomy steamboats.

ASHEVILLE, N. C. 

In the centre of a region poetically desig- 
nated as the " The Land of the Sky," is A.she- 
ville, N. C. 

In Western North Carolina, between the 
Blue Ridge on the east and the Alleghanies 
on the west, lies this beautiful valley. It is a 
land of bright skies, incomparable climate, 
and picturesque scenery, whose praises have 
been sung by poets, and whose beauties of 
stream, valley, and mountain height have 
furnished subject and inspiration to the 
sketcher's hand. The city is situated in the 
heart of the mountains, 2300 feet above the 
level of the tide. Romantic scenery sur- 
rounds the town on every side, and the ap- 
proach to it . from either direction leads 
through a panorama of enchanting views. 
On the one hand there rises the beautiful 
Blue Ridge ; on the other, the picturesque 
Alleghanies ; at their feet flow the clear 
waters of the French Broad. 

There is scarcely no more beautiful valley 
than this, and certainly none more rich in 
all that would attract health-seeker, lounger, 
invalid or dreamer. The climate is superb.

Atlantic City claims for itself to be the 
most popular resort in this country — an all- 
year-round health-restoring and pleasure- 
giving place, unsurpassed in the plenitude 
of its accommodations. 

Although immediately on the beach (many 
houses being but a few feet from the surf,) it 
is a city often thousand inhabitants, which 
at the height of the summer season is in- 
creased to a hundred thousand. 

In summer, bathing, fishing, driving, boat- 
ing, and like sea-shore divertisements are its 
offerings to the well who go there for a rest 
and change from the monotony of every-day 
affairs. 

For the invalid there is ozone-freighted 
air, breezes tempered by journeys over thou- 
sands of miles of ocean, cool, comfortable 
nights for repose, and all the facilities en- 
joyed in cities of the larger size. 

Fine avenues, beautiful cottages, magnifi- 
cently-appointed hotels, street cars, electric 
lights, a perfect sewerage, and first-class 
drinking water brought from the mainland. 

Prominent as it is, as a summer resort, it is 
hardly less so as a winter sanitarium — many 
of its hotels being filled to their utmost.

BAR HARBOR, ME. (MT. DESERT.) 

This island (named by Champlain in 1604, 
E'isle des Monts Desert) is about one hun- 
dred miles (water route) east of Portland, 
Maine. Bar Harbor is the principal village, 
containing numerous residences and hotels. 
The island, which is about fourteen miles by 
eight, contains a wonderful variety of na- 
ture's beauties in the same line. Mountains, 
the highest on the Atlantic coast, beautiful 
valleys, lakes of great depth and peculiar 
surroundings, roaring streams, and great 
brooks. It is very popular from the fact that 
the varied character of its charms attracts 
alike the mountaineer, the hunter, the 
yachtsmen, artist, naturalist, and the poet.

BARNEGAT CITY BEACH, N. J. 

Barnegat is one of the oldest and most cele- 
brated settlements on the Jersey coast, and 
many are the traditions that cluster about its 
shores, so full of peril to sailors. The very 
name means "dangerous breakers," and 
many an old sailor would testify to the fit- 
ness of the appellation. 

The town, located near the shores of Bar- 
negat Bay is the metropolis of the fishing- 
grounds of New Jersey. The bay and inlet 
are the favorite haunts of bluefish as well as 
the home of every other species native to the 
waters of that section. 

In addition to its fishing resources oysters 
are plentiful, and wild fowl are found in great 
abundance. 

Yachts, tackle, and sportsmen's supplies 
may be obtained from the seafaring people, 
of which the population is largely composed.

CHAUTAUQUA LAKE, N. Y. 

This magnficient sheet of water, is situated 
on a table land 1,400 feet above the sea level, 
and enjoys the distinction of being the 
highest navigable inland sea on the con- 
tinent. Situated in Western New York, in 
the county of Chautauqua, it is eighteen miles 
long and ranges from one to five miles in 
width. 

In many respects this lake is the most mag- 
nificent in this country. Aside from its al- 
titude, the scenery along its shores is of such 
a beautiful character that artists find fresh 
snatches to paint each recurring season. 
The water is deep and transparent, and as 
pure as crystal. No wonder, then, that it 
should abound in fine game fish, and yearly 
attract anglers to its shores. The air is al- 
ways cool and invigorating, and here malaria 
is absolutely unknown. The boating and 
bathing are superb, and the drives along the 
shores of the lake and back in the hills are 
unsurpassed, and scarcely to be equalled any- 
where. These features have combined to 
draw admiring thousands of intellectual 
holiday-seekers here every summer, and to 
establish several large well-appointed hotels. 
The class of people that patronize Chau- 
tauqua are lovers of the beautiful in nature, 
who appreciate all that the Creator has be- 
stowed upon it, and know how to get pleasure 
out of every daylight moment, and invigor- 
ating and restful sleep out of the calm, cool 
nights. 

A fleet of steamers ply on the lake daily, 
and carry excursionists all around it. The 
scene on the water in the daytime, and for 
that matter after moondawn, is one of ani- 
mation. Steam yachts, launches, row boats 
and shells are darting iii all directions, and 
the "lone fisherman" sits in quiet contem- 
plation, awaiting the "tug" of a bass or 
pickerel. In the fall the duck shooting 
about the coves and nooks is excellent, and 
gunners flock there with the same regularity 
as the wild fowl. 

The Chautauqua Assembly, organized in 
1S74, holds itsmeeting every July and August. 
The purpose of the enterprise is to combine 
the recreations of a summer resort with in- 
tellectual culture and improvement. The 
Assembly is a great educational institution, 



116 



DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 




Model of Jerusalem, (Mt. of Olives)— Chautauqua. 



that attracts teachers of all grades here, both 
for information and to commune about their 
fraternal interests, and this has proved itself 
one of the most prominent features of at- 
traction. The Assembly grounds are at 
Point Chautauqua. To lovers of gaiety, 
Lakewood, a few miles distant, offers every 
opportunity. And among many of the most 
beautiful drives in this neighborhood, is from 
Jamestown to Mayville ; and, as for aquatic 
attractions, a sail on the lake is a beautiful 
sight, that awaits the person who will spend 
the time in steaming from Jamestown 
through the Narrows.

COTTAGE 



CITY (Martha's Vineyard' 
MASS. 



Cottage City developed into a summer 
resort through the ministratious of the 
Methodists. Captivated by the beauty and 
healthfulness of the location they built an 
enormous tabernacle for public worship and 
set up their tents around it. Presently the 
tents became cottages, and as the population 
increased a large summer town was built, 
which has attracted many visitors other 
than those who came to worship. 

The shores of Martha's Vineyard, on which 
Cottage City is located, are exceedingly 
attractive, and their fascinations are greatly 
enhanced by the animation which always 
prevails upon the surrounding waters. All 
the marine travel between New York and 
Boston, and between Boston and the South 
passes through Holmes' Hole and Vineyard 
Sound, and these bits of ocean are always 
alive with shipping. Bluffs and cliffs over- 
hang the shore in many places, and main- 
beautiful islets are separated from the mother 
island by a narrow strip of water.

CRAWFORD HOUSE, N. H. (WHITE 
MOUNTAINS). 

The Crawford House is situated on a 
plateau 2,000 feet above the sea, and com- 
mands a magnificent view of Mt. Washing- 



ton (6,293 feet), and Mt. Monroe (5,349 feet). 
The bridle-path up Mt. Washington passes 
over Mounts Pleasant, Monroe, Franklin, 
and Clinton, and is said to afford finer views 
than any other route. 

Within easy reach of the Crawford House 
are, the Notch, a huge chasm in the moun- 
tains, which rises 2,000 feet on either side ; 
.Silver Cascade and Sylvan Glade Cataract, 
between which it is hard to award the palm; 
and Mount Willard, commanding a view

HAMMONDSPORT, N. Y. 
LAKE KEUKA, STEUBEN COUNTY, N. Y. 

The Delaware, Lackawanna & Western 
Railroad connects at Bath with the Bath & 
Hammondsport Railroad, and a ride through 
the far famed Pleasant Valley brings the 
traveller to Hammondsport, N. Y., at the 
head of Lake Keuka. 

Here, nestled among the vineclad hills of 
Yates and Steuben Counties, lies Lake Keuka, 
"The Queen of Lakes," the most beautiful 
of the smaller lakes in America. In a coun- 
try whose picturesqueness is far famed, in 
the midst of scenery for which western New- 
York is noted, this gem of inland waters has 
rapidly increased in fame and popularity. 
The quiet beauty of its waters, the novelty 
of its scenery, the salubrity of its atmos- 
phere have gradually extended its name until 
to-day Lake Keuka is recognized as one of 
the most famous resorts in New York State. 
It is the land of health and recreation. No 
swamp land or malaria is found, no inosqui- 
tos are bred in the dry healthy air, and hay 
fever is unknown. 

Sailing, rowing, fishing and bathing are 
pastimes with which one wiles away the 
summer hours. From all parts of the coun- 
try enthusiastic fishermen come to lure from 
the depths the fish which everywhere abound. 
The following endorsement from Seth Green, 
the late veteran fisherman and United States 
Fish Commissioner, speaks for itself: 

" I think Lake Keuka unsurpassed by any 
waters in America as a fishing resort. The 
purity of the water, the large amount of fish 
food contained in the Lake, tend to put the 
fish in the finest condition for the table, and 
render them very strong and gamey when on 
the hook and line. During one of my 
sojourns in August, I took by hook and line 
19 salmon trout weighing 113 pounds, and 
one day in October 33 black bass weighing 
106 pounds. 

The Lake is 22 miles long, divided about 
midway by a long bold promontory extending 
southward into its waters and terminating 
in "Bluff Point," one of the notable land- 
marks of this section, from whose lofty sum- 
mits seven counties can be seen. Lake 
Keuka is 780 feet above sea level, and its 
shores and loftv hills remind the traveler of 




Lake Kextka, 



124 



DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN K. K. 



the banks of the River Rhine where the 
wooded hills are covered for miles with vine- 
yards. The precipitous sides of the Lake 
for miles are covered with farm houses, 
woodland glens and vineyards, while its 
water's edge is dotted with hotels and cot- 
tages, affording a panorama of" unceasing 
beauty and interest to the tourist when viewed 
from the deck of the passing steamer. 

The Hotels of Lake Keuka are "Grove 
Springs,'.' " Ogoyago," "Keuka," "Gib- 
son's," "Idlewild," and " The Ark," while 
at the head of the Lake is the ' ' Fairchild 
House." All the hotels have -spacious cool 
rooms, broad verandas, and handsome sur- 
roundings of groves and grassy lawns, and 
connected with each, besides the dancing 
pavilions, bath houses, etc., are many cot- 
tages which are rented to families and par- 
ties. 

Keuka University and Assembly Grounds 
are located four miles from Penn Yan, the 
northern terminus of the Lake. Here during 
the summer months the great assembly is 
held, and during the remainder of the year, 
with the exception of the summer vacation, 
Keuka College is filled with students. The 
location is accessible, beautiful and healthy, 
on the west shore of Lake Keuka, and com- 
prises some 250 acres of land, twenty ot 
which are occupied by the college and 
campus, thirty acres of natural grove, seve- 
ral acres of streets, and the remainder by 
cottages. 

Lake Keuka's grapes have a national re- 
putation, while its champagnes are only 
rivalled by those of foreign vintages. Over 
20,000 tons of grapes are annually grown, and 
many million gallons of still wines and bot- 
tles of champagne are produced. The wine 
cellars are well worth coming miles to see, 
and "The hospitality extended to the vis- 
itor is as broad as the sky." 

The steamboat service upon the Lake is 
unexcelled. Last year the Lake Keuka 
Navigation Company added to its fleet the 
steamer " Mary Bell," 150 feet long, built of 
steel and designed through her light draft 
and power&il machinery to make the dis- 
tance of 22 miles between Hammoudsport 
and Penn Yan in about one hour. She has 
triple expansion engines, two boilers and 
twin screws, and capacity of accommodating 
1000 passengers. In addition to the " Mary 
Bell, ' ' the steamers of the Lake Keuka Navi- 
gation Company are the "Halsey," "Ur- 
bana, " "Holmes," "West Branch," and 
" Lulu," and hardly an hour passes, but that 
the summer sojourner upon the Lake can, if 
he will, take a boat to some point of interest, 
or " make train connections " for the small 
fare of from ten to twenty -five cents. 

Lake Keuka is nicely located for little ex- 
cursion trips during one's outing. Niagara 
Falls is but three hours ride via the Delaware, 
Lackawanna & Western Railroad, while Wat- 
kins Glen is but twenty miles distant. The 



New York State Soldiers and Sailors Home 
at Bath is reached in thirty minutes, and 
the beautiful drives along Lake Keuka's 
shores touch picturesque little hamlets, while 
the Lake and surrounding country as viewed 
by a drive along the brow of its hills present 
a panorama unrivalled. 

Those wishing a more detailed description 
of Lake Keuka and its environments should 
address the Lake Keuka Navigation Com- 
pany, Hammoudsport, N. Y. for their illus- 
trated book, which will be mailed free.

LURAY CAVERNS, VA. 

Those who have visited these wonderful 
and recently discovered subterranean cav- 
erns testify that they form wonderful ex- 
amples of nature's handiwork. Words can- 
not adequately describe them; they must be 
studied to be thoroughly realized. The 
vestibule of this subterranean mansion is 
attained by descending the stone steps of 
the cave, and once there, the first sensation 
experienced by the visitor is one of awe, at 
the fearful stillness that reigns supreme, and 
this is in no way enlivened by the grotesque 
forms surrounding. Once mastered, how- 
ever, these emotions turn to wonder. From 
an entrance hall elaborate with stalactite 
decoration, numerous avenues lead into un- 
known depths. One of the corridors leads to 
the Fish Market, or rather to a cave which, to 
all appearances, is hung with row upon row 
of fish, so natural is the form of the pendants 
from above. The crystal lake with its un- 
ruffled ice-cold surface ; the vegetable 
garden with ever erratic but none the less 
vegetable like hangings. Numerous cham- 
bers, every one known from a striking resem- 
blance to too easily recognized objects, and 
each filled with the quaint subterranean 
creations are connected one to the other by 
lanes, which appear as though covered by 
some giant hand ; grottoes, elaborated with 
the richest ornamentation ; sparkling water- 
falls, and figures and forms of indefinite 
shape inspires emotions of wonder, which 
grow with each new revelation. Here we 
find a Cathedral, with its ever noiseless 
organ ; a hall of giants relieved by fluted 
columns and arches innumerable. A plateau- 
like spot commonly known as the Elfin 
Ramble, together with Hades, Horey's Hall 
and Pluto's chasm, and a variety of other 
equally fine attractions form but a limit to 
the marvellous sights these caverns contain. 
Here, nature has fashioned itself in its own 
erratic style. Nothing in the way of artificial 
adornment has been done here by man.

in every direction is superb. Every prospect 
is replete with wild beauty ; every emotion 
excited by the outlook is one of admiration. 
Leading up from the city to the top of Mt. 
i Pisgah is the celebrated Switchback Railroad, 
which lifts the passengers to an elevation of 
eighteen hundred feet above the waters of 
the river. The ascent though absolutely safe, 
is exciting, and the view, both from the car 
and from the mountain's top, is magnificent. 
Within a few minutes' ride up the Lehigh is 
the beautiful Glen Onoko.

MONTREAL, P. Q. 

Is situated upon the southeast side of a 
triangular island formed by the mouths of 
the Ottawa, where after a course of 600 
miles, it flows into the St. Lawrence. Popu- 
lation, 200,000. 

Back of the city, but within its limits, 
rises Mount Royal (700 feet), on the summit 
of which is a fine park. The city is on about 
the same spot where the Indian village 
Hockelaga existed when Cartier visited this 
neighborhood early in the sixteenth century. 

It has been under English rule since 1761 
— prior to which it was in possession of the 
French.

NEW BEDFORD, MASS. 

New Bedford glories in the possession of 
one of the finest, as well as the most pictur- 
esque, harbors of the Atlantic coast. The 
entrance to the harbor, lying between Clark's 
Neck and Sconticut Point, is strongly forti- 
fied, and the wharf frontage extends along 
the broad Acushnet for two miles. Fair- 
haven, on the opposite shore of the river, is 
connected with the city by a long bridge. 
The city rises gradually from the water's edge, 
and the streets are shaded and beautified by 
fine old elms. A public driveway extending 
along the coast for five miles presents excel- 
lent views of the ocean and the islands which 
dot its surface. The various industries of 
New Bedford attract people of all nationali- 
ties, and an idle hour may be well passed in 
studying the various types of its inhabitants. 

New Bedford is the starting-point for the ' 
steamer ride to Nautucket, Martha's Vine- 
yard, and Cottage City. 

It has pleasant neighbors in the pretty 
summer towns of Fairhaven, Mattapoissett, 
Marion, and Nonquit.

NEWPORT, R. I, 

This fashionable watering place probably 
takes first place in that it out-ranks all other 
of our resorts in age and in the social scale. 

"Nature has lavished her riches on the 
spot. There is rare beauty in the laud, 
its grass and shrubs ; there is a surpassing 
charm in air and sky, and a fascination in 
the sea and its blue waters with gem-like 
isles." 

The city is of itself a beautiful place ; its 
habitations costly and elaborate. Its drives 
are world famous, particularly the cliff road, 
which, in the season, presents a magnificent 
array of gorgeous equipages and richly 
dressed people.

NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y. 

This magnificent cataract, the grandeur of 
which has been but inadequately dwelt upon 
by many celebrated writers, calls for far 
more elaborate treatment than in our limit- 
ed space, even if we had words at command to 
do this wonder of Nature justice, we can allot 
to it. We are only able to hint at few of its 
marvels and to dilate a little on the un- 
rivalled beauty of the ceaseless roaring 
" Thunder of Waters." 

To the aborigines, this wonderful cataract 
was called " Ony-a-ka-ra " and " Og-na- 
kar-ra," "Thunder of Waters," and thus it 
will be seen that even they, in all their sim- 
plicity, realized what a mighty work nature

l:;:; 



had here accomplished. Niagara Falls never 
becomes monotonous to the visitor. Any 
one gazing upon it, realizes how hard it is 
to be able to describe it adequately, for any 
attempt at word painting of this rolling 
flood would prove but a poor travesty of the 
work of Almighty God. 

Three distinct falls comprise the whole. 
These are the "Horse Shoe," on the Canadian 
side, "x\merican," on the Niagara or United 
States side, and " Central," which descends 
between Luna and Goat Islands. Three 
thousand feet is the entire breadth of the com- 
bined falls. 

Niagara ranks as the foremost of the 
world's wonders, and it is visited annually 
by hundreds of thousands from all parts. 
Indeed many a newly married couple will 
spend their honeymoon there. 

It has been stated that the sound of the 
falling waters can be heard at a distance of 
24 miles, and that from eighteen to twenty- 
one millions of cubic feet of water descend 
per minute from the river above. The lakes 
and streams that find an outlet in the Niagara 
River drain five hundred thousand or more 
square miles of land, and the lakes and trib- 
utaries themselvts cover a surface of one 
hundred and fifty thousand square miles. 

The river in its onward flow to Lake Ontario 
has a fall of 334 feet. It dashes heedlessly on 
over rocks and islets, and is lashed into foam 
all the way to Lewiston. No craft yet built 
— yes, one, the Maid of the Mist, on June 
15, i86r, was successfully taken from the foot 
of the Falls, through the rapids and whirl- 
pool, and finally delivered on Lake Ontario- 
even were the water of sufficient depth, could 
sail the rapids. Several daring adventurers 
have sacrificed their lives to win fame and 
money by braving the rapids, and foremost 
among these was Captain Webb. 

The State of New York having secured the 
rights to the lands adjacent to the falls, has 
incorporated them into Niagara Park, which 
embraces the greatest points of interest on 
the American side. The park is open to the 
public free of charge. Goat Island, con- 
nected with this park by a bridge, offers the 
best view of the falls, and from Prospect 
Park on the mainland, the scenery is magnifi- 
cent. The drive along the Canadian shore 
affords a splendid view of the gorge and 
rapids. 

Connected with the falls are innumerable 
points of interest, principal among which are 
the Cave of the Winds, Three Sisters Island, 
Burning Spring, the Whirlpool Rapids, Sus- 
pension and Cantilever Bridges. A sen- 
sational trip is that made across the river 
below the falls in a little steamer, the modern 
Maid of the Mist. 

The drives around Niagara are very interest- 
ing, and the village itself, with its pretty 
homes, fine streets and great number of large, 
well - kept hotels, should be explored by 
visitors.

OCEAN GROVE, (Asbury Park) N. J. 

What is now the resort of hundreds of 
thousands of summer visitors was originally 
(and that but a few years since) a camp 
ground of members of the Methodist church. 

To-day, it is a splendid summer city by the 
sea. 

The rules prohibiting the sale of intoxicat- 
ing liquors at any time, and forbidding driv- 
ing, boating, bathing, etc., on Sunday, are 
strictly enforced, and that a resting place 
with such moral observances is very popular 
with a large proportion of the people is amply 
attested by the unparalleled prosperity to be 
witnessed at Ocean Grove.

OLD ORCHARD BEACH, ME. 



apple 



The name is derived from an old 
orchard a few miles from Saco, Me. 

The beach, however, is the great attrac- 
tion, being rated the finest in New England. 
Having an average width of three hundred 
feet at low tide, and extending about ten 
miles in length, it offers not only splendid 
bathing facilities, but a charming drive. 

Excursion S T 12. — Boston to Old 
Orchard Beach and Return.

Sold only in connection with Summer Excursion 

Ticket to, or passing through Boston.

OLD POINT COMFORT, VA. 

(Fortress Monroe.) 

Peace has here erected monumental re- 
minders of her victories in the Soldier's 
Home, National Normal School, etc., inter- 
esting accompaniments to a sojourner 
whether he hies him here for rest and recrea- 
tion from business cares, or in search of 
restored health. A mammoth hotel of tlie 
first-class supplies every creature comfort; 
the broad bay offers diversions that are com- 
peted for by the picturesque precincts of the 
fortress. 

Music, the dance, bright uniforms, ships 
of war and peace, add life to the splendid 
picture, and though far away from the every- 
day activity of city life, monotony is un- 
known.

PROFILE HOUSE, N. H. (White 
Mountains). 

The profile House is the principal resort in 
the Franconia' range, the features in the 
locality being Mt. Lafayette (5,585 feet), 
Cannon, Bald, Liberty, Pleasant and others. 
Other peculiarities are Echo Lake, Eagle 
Cliff, Old Man of the Mountain, Profile lake, 
the Flume, Pool, etc., etc. The house, 
though immense in size and placed at an 
elevation of 2,000 feet above sea level, is 
sunk into comparative insignificance, so 
small is it compared with the almost perpen- 
dicular mountains which rise up from its 
doors. 

What is particularly striking here is the 
magnitude of everything. The air is of course 
pure as can be obtained; the drives are per- 
fect in their road beds and penetrate roman- 
tic regions.

QUEBEC, P. O. 

Quebec, a great city of 75,000 inhabitants, 
is the only walled city in this country. It is 
triangular in form (St. Charles and St. Law- 
rence Rivers and Plains of Abraham'being 
the lines). There are really two towns — 
upper and lower — the former being strongly 
fortified and elevated nearly four hundred 
feet above the latter. 

It is quaint and antique in the extreme, and 
strangers are naturally surprised to find so

citadel attracts every visitor to Quebec. 
Within the battlements there are more than

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y. 

Originally famous for the curative quality 
of its waters, Saratoga Springs has long been 
a leading resort for fashion. 

The hotels are mammoth in their propor- 
tions, and on their piazzas and in their 
gardens the highest social figures of the day 
congregate to participate in the gayeties, 
which here are never ceasing. Justly cele 
brated for having the largest hotels in the 
world, conveying the idea of prohibitory 
rates to those of modest income, it should be 
understood that accommodations may be had 
in the town at rates satisfactory to all purses.

DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 



SILVER LAKE, N. Y. 

Silver Lake, famous for a brief, glorious 
period, a generation ago, because of its 
fabled sea serpent, has gained a less transi- 
tory fame in these latter days in that it has 
its devoted band of those who worship at 
Nature's shrine along its gravelly shores. 
Here, as at Conesus and Keuka and Seneca, 
yes, and as at Lake George, the cottage 
builder has adorned the leafy shores with his 
gay bungalow and the tents of the campers 
gleam afar across the sleeping waters. 

The Genesee Conference Camp Ground 
Association has thirty acres of improved 
grounds enclosed, on which are erected 
about sixty cottages, and the Silver Lake 
Temperance Assembly has a very extensive 
rendezvous upon the lake, meeting here 
annually. 

Taken altogether, the grounds and sur- 
roundings are the handsomest to be found 
in Western New York, and are annually 
visited by over 30,000 people. There is a 
cabin, the first one of the kind ever erected 
in the United States as a Pioneer Log Cabin 
Museum, and the collection within its walls 
could never be replaced should it by any 
means be destroyed.

TAUGHANNOCK FALLS, N. Y. 

Halsey Creek has its rise upon the ridge 
dividing Seneca and Cayuga Lakes, and 
flowing down the easterly watershed finally 
reaches the latter by a prodigious plunge 
into a wild and romantic chasm, thus form- 
ing the Falls of Taughannock, the highest 
single cascade in the State, having a direct 
fall of two hundred and fifteen feet. The 
gorge is plainly visible from the decks of 
passing steamers, but its creamy headlong 
cataract is deeply hidden by the environing 
foliage. About ten miles from Ithaca.

WATCH HILL, R. I, 

Years ago this charming spot was selected 
as a site by a few families for their summer 
homes, but it was not long before others, 
appreciating the exceptional advantages and 
its picturesque situation, located here, until 
now Watch Hill, R. I., is as well known as 
any summer resort along the coast. It is 
situated on elevated ground, at the south- 
western extremity of the State; while on the 
mainland it enjoys all the advantages of 
being out at sea. Eleven lighthouses and 
one lightship are visible from the town.

WATKINS GLEN, N. Y. 

Here Dame Nature, outdoing herself, per- 
fected a work that would reflect nothing but 
credit upon herself, for this wonderful piece 
of earthen architecture fills all humanity with 
amazement. 

Of all places visited by those who go to 
enjoy themselves, and who love to investi- 
gate the wonders of this land, none has won 
such well-merited fame as Watkins Glen. 
From the very entrance of the Glen to its 
extreme limit there is something charming 
to be seen. 

The Glen is situated in the village of 
Watkins, Schuyler County, at the head of 
Seneca Lake. The village in itself is a 
pretty spot, but the Glen, of course, is the 
main attraction. 

This Glen consists of a series of arcades, 
galleries and weird caves, and here and there 
silver cascades are to be found that impart a 
wonderfully romantic appearance to this 
romantic spot. 

Here human art stepped in to assist Nature 
in exhibiting her marvellous store of 
wonders to the best advantage. Before any 
explorations could be made by tourists it 
became necessary to erect ladders, by means 
of which ascents could be made from one 
steep incline to another, and to cut pathways 
in the rock. This was done by the pro- 
prietor of the Glen Mountain House, who 
owns the Glen, and offers the best facilities 
of inspection to his guests. 

Probably the most beautiful of the attrac- 
tions of this spot is Rainbow Falls, so called 
because at particular seasons when the sun 
is in a certain position, it shines through 
the mist which emanates from the waterfall, 
causing it to assume all the colors of the 
rainbow. The other great attractions are 
Entrance Cascade, Trout Pool, Glen Alpha, 
Stillwater Gorge, Minnehaha Cascade, Fairy 
Cascade, Neptune's Pool, Cavern Cascade, 
Cavern Gorge and the Labyrinth. 

A delightful feature of the chasm is the 
wonderful coolness of the air. The sun 



never shines here, and very often on the 
hottest day a light wrap becomes a neces- 
sary adjunct to a tour of inspection. 

The air at Watkins is filled with the 
resinous odor of pine and hemlock, and the 
individual with an indifferent appetite has 
no need to resort to artificial tonics to revive 
it. In fact, the Glen Mountain House can 
furnish as many robust appetites as any 
hotel in the country of its size. 

A Sanitarium is near the Glen, and is a 
popular place for persons seeking invigorat- 
ing air and a cool atmosphere. 

The view of Seneca Lake from the hotel 
Observatory is one of the grandest to be 
had anywhere.

THE HOTEL ATHEN/EUM. 



The main features of the Chautauqua Assembly are described on page 115 of this book. 



aHAUTAUOUA, simply as a place of summer residence, aside from its educational 
system, is a charming spot. The town is built upon heavily wooded natural 
terraces, which slope gently to the shore of Chautauqua Lake, a lovely sheet 
of water twenty miles in length. Lake Erie is only ten miles away, but it lies 700 
feet below. The beautifully undulated country in the vicinity offers many attractive 
drives. The air is cool and invigorating. Hot, oppressive nights are almost un- 
known. The streets and avenues of this city wind gracefully in and out among the 
trees, or stretch like leafy tunnels through the forest. More than 500 dwellings, 
ranging from cozy little cottages to large, handsome country houses, are scattered in 
orderly arrangement through the groves, about the parks and by the lakeside. The 
supply of water at Chautauqua is abundant and pure, and the town has a remarkable 
health record; sickness of all kinds is extremely rare. A complete system of sewers, 
with chemical disposal works, will be in successful operation in 1893. Recreation in 
unusual variety is offered in this summer city, which is not given up wholly to the 
pursuit of literature, science and art. If one is so inclined he may spend a summer 
at Chautauqua without any more intellectual wear and tear than is involved in listen- 
ing to bright, humorous lectures, entertaining readings and good music, in watching 
fire-works and illuminated fleets, and in taking athletic exercise. 

THE HOTEL ATHENAEUM was built to meet a demand for a hotel of the 
first grade. Architecturally it leaves nothing to be desired. The halls are broad 
and straight, and for the nature of the site — which is hillside — no floor is more than 
one flight from the ground. There are broad verandas which command views of 
lawns, flowers, fountains near at hand, and in the distance the lake with its beautiful 
shores. The cuisine is excellent, as none but the most experienced cooks are em- 
ployed. The house is equipped with elevator, gas, electric bells, baths, Telegraph 
office and all the other features of a first-class establishment. 

Chautauqua will be a pleasant resting place on the road to Chicago. 

For details address, 

W. A. DUNCAN, Secretary, 



vSvRACUSE, N. Y.

Forest Park, 



The New and Elegant 
Summer Resort. 



NEAR BUSHKILL, 
Pike County, Pennsylvania. 



SITUATED in the heart of Pike County, Pennsylvania, that paradise for sportsmen and anglers 
that great health resort, the fame of which has long been national, lies Forest Park, a tract nine 
miles long, varying from two to three miles in width, and comprising about sixteen thousand acres, 
diversified by mountain and valley, lake and stream, forest and plain, as rich in rural loveliness, his- 
torical associations, traditions and romance, as any spot in the United States ; within six hours of 
New York or Philadelphia. 

On a sightly plateau, fifteen hundred feet above sea level, have been constructed some of the build- 
ings for the use and enjoyment of the guests. 

At present there are four structures for the accommodation of guests situated a short distance 
apart, for safety from fire and to insure quietness, in the midst of elegant lawns covered with foun- 
tains and rare plants, and connected with each other by broad covered walks. 

The internal arrangements of these buildings are homelike, superb in their appointments and 
furnished primarily with a view to comfort. Rooms of all kinds are provided. Toilet aud bath rooms 
with hot and cold water and shower baths on each floor. Electric bells in every room and the build- 
ings lighted by gas. 

The culinary arrangements are unsurpassed by any hotel. The table is equal to that of any first- 
class hotel table. 

The water supply for drinking, culinary and all other purposes is obtained from springs boiling 
out of the natural rock. It is cold, crystal-like in its clearness, and of great purity. It is continually 
pumped up to an enclosed tank on the roof of the hotel and is distributed by pipes. This water is 
available throughout the year, as the springs do not freeze or run dry. 

The drainage has received careful attention, and the most improved sanitary plumbing has been 
provided in the buildings. With absolutely pure water and adequate drainage as here provided, 
guests are assured against those insidious attacks which have made many, even pretentious, summer 
resorts places to be shunned. Malaria and mosquitoes are absolutely unknown here. 

Immediately across the lawn from the hotel a large number of camps and tents, surrounded by 
health-giving pints, have been erected for the use of those who prefer this kind of habitation during 
the warm weather. These tents are roomy and water-tight, placed upon raised platforms and 
stretched upon solid frames to prevent the possibility of capsizing or of dampness during a storm. 
They are furnished the same as the rooms in the hotel, have comfortable beds (not cots), are carpeted, 
have gas, gas stoves and electric bells and are exceedingly popular. 

To one side and within two hundred feet of the hotel are the billiard and pool rooms and the 
bowling alleys. On the lawn are the grounds for tennis, croquet, cricket and archery. The lakes 
have been provided with St. Lawrence sail and row boats and a steam launch. There is also, on a fine 
sloping sand beach, a bathing-house and excellent facilities for bathers and swimmers. 

Forest Park is reached from New York by way of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Rail- 
road, the railway station being Stroudsburg, Pa.; from Philadelphia by the Pennsylvania Railroad to 
Stroudsburg. The visitor from New York or Philadelphia can reach the Forest Park within six hours 
after leaving home. 

Forest Park carriages convey guests from the depot to the Park. The Stroudsburg Suburban Rail- 
way line is now extending its tracks to Pushkin, whence a pleasant ride of three miles brings visitors 
to the Park. 

The Hotel will open June ist, 1893.

An " Encyclopedic Dictionary" is 

what the Century Dictionary is called. 
What does that mean ? 

AN ENCYCLOPEDIA contains descriptive articles about persons, 
countries, etc., excluding a treatment of words as words. 

AN ORDINARY DICTIONARY treats words only as words,— giving 
pronunciation, a brief etymology, and definitions.

Is first of all a dictionary pure and simple, treating 
words more fully than they have ever been treated 
before in any completed dictionary, containing 100,000 
more words than most dictionaries, with accurate 
etymologies, full definitions, the standard American 
spelling and pronunciation, 300,000 quotations showing 
the uses of words in a way that was never so fully 
shown before,— and in addition to all this it is 



ENCYCLOPEDIC 



■ 1 1 1 iii 



because it treats words as things. For instance look at 
"fever"; after the definition comes a list of every known 
fever, each one fully defined, "typhus fever," "yellow 
fever," "relapsing fever," etc. Look at "bridge" and you 
will find every kind of bridge defined, with illustrations, — 
"paneltruss bridge," "arched=beam bridge," " cantalever 
bridge," etc. Under such words as "eye," "law," "harmonic," 
" electric," you may read an encyclopedic article written by 
an expert high in his profession. (These words and many 
more are in the pamphlet of specimen pages — see below.)

The Favorite Spring, 

Summer and 

Autumn Resort. 




DELAWARE WATER GAP, MONROE CO., Penna. 

The "Kittatinny" open from May ist to November hardly needs introduction 
to people familiar with the beautiful Delaware Valley. 

It is the pioneer of the resort hotels of the State, and enjoys the present distinc- 
tion of being one of the best known and most fortunate in beauty of location. From 
a quaint mountain inn of half century ago, the Kittatinny has grown continously 
and so added to its appointments with its ever-increasing popularity that to-day it is 
the largest and one of the best hotels on the Delaware, receiving 350 guests and 
possessing a fame as wide as that of the storied Water Gap itself. 

The house stands on a smooth plateau two hundred feet above the river, with the 
perfect picture ol the river and the towering mountains that form the " Gap " on the 
one hand, and a wealth of natural beauty the background on the other. 

One hundred and fifty acres of private grounds form a park, with the lake and 
mountain streams, rustic paths leading to every point of interest, and-rustic structural 
to add to its effect. Within the hotel the appointments are complete, and suggestive 
in many details of the delightful outing life of which this is the centre. 

The parlors, reception and reading rooms, office, corridors and bed-rooms are 
large, airy and tastefully furnished. A number of the bed-rooms are en-suite with 
bath and private balconies. 

An unlimited supply of purest water from mountain springs is furnished in each, 
both hot and cold. 

The main dining-room, occupying the ground floor of the annex, built a year 
ago, seats three hundred. The cuisine is in charge of an experienced chef. 

Other appointments include hydraulic elevator, gas, electric bells, billiard room, 
a well equipped livery, and an excellent orchestra. 

The hotel is heated throughout by steam for the comfort of those desiring to 
come out in the early spring, or remaining through the fall.

Imperial CloMen Piano, Only $225.00. 

Do you know that since 1886 we have been offering our 
$1,000.00 "Best" Imperial Piano at $275.00 net. $275.00 seems 
very low, doesn't it, for a $1,000.00 Piano. Well, its the long 
or catalogue price, and we have soldjlots of them too, at 
$275.00. To be sure our profit is small, but when you sell so 
many every little counts. "Large sales and small profits." 
— A. T. Stewart. We now enjoy perhaps the largest direct 
I'iano trade of any one establishment is existence. Why? 
Because thousands who bought our Organs years ago are 
now ordering our Pianos. Now, we are determined to double 
our Piano trade this year and in order to accomplish it have 
decided to sell our "Best" Imperial Golden Piano 

FOR ONLY $225.00 NET, 

including cover, stool and book, and if ordered within six (6) 
days from date of this newspaper we will ship immediately 
all freight prepaid. Kemember, we don't want your 
$225.00 check until you fully test it in your own home and 
are entirely satisfied. ThaVs fair, isn't it ? Let us ship you 
one on test trial to-day. Please answer. We saw 
an American Piano in Naples, Italy, on our tour of the 
World, 1889-SJ0 that cost its owner $2,000.00 (as it was built to 
order) made by a high monopolist Piano builder of 
New York City. Now we say frankly, if our Piano io not 
worth two (2) like that one we will donate $50,000 to any 
charitable institute that you may name. Yes and this very 
same grade Piano is retailed daily by local dealers every- 
where for from $350.00 to $450.00, as we are prepared to prove in the U. S. or any other court. Why don't you order one 
at $226.00 and sell it for $450.oo. Here is $225.00 profit— not a bad day's work if you don't want a Piano yourself. Re- 
member, it's no cheap Piano, but our "Best," and is constructed from the very choicest material the market affords or 
ready money can buy. It contains every modern improvement, such as three (3) foot pedals, three (3) strings to each 
note, continuous hinges, 7 1-3 octaves, elegant nickel-plate repeating French grand action, and will be furnished you in 
any style wood desired, viz: Ebony, Burled Walnut, Antique Oak, Rosewood or Mahogany. Dimensions— Length, 5 ft. 
3 in. : Heighth, 4 ft. 8 in. New style No. 34,667. Weight, boxed, about 1,000 lbs. Now tell us where can you buy a 
maker's "Best" Piano for only $225.00, and one that contains more valuable patent improvements than this one. Then, 
too, reader, we don't ask you for the $225.00 check until you have placed said Piano in your own home and are fully satis- 
fied, and after you do, mail us the $225.00 check in full payment. You really run no risk, for if at any time within three 
(3) years you are not pleased, return it at our expense and we will promptly refund you your $225.00 with interest at 6 
percent. This is a better investment than money in a saving bank, if in >t pleased. But we know you will be pleased; 
only one out of a thousand is ever returned, for they are often sold after years of use for more money than was paid. 
Dare we send our "Best" Piano out on any such terms if they were not good? No, certainly not. Well, reader, let us 
send you one on trial. Satisfaction guaranteed or no pay. Send us an order and be sure to answer tills advertisement, 
and state where you saw it. We now have nearly 100,000 in use all over the world. Fully warranted ten (10) years. 
X. B.— If cheek for $225.00 is mailed with order you may deduct Ave (."») per cent, and 
we will ship immediately, all freight prepaid. Write us your order to-day. If not, why not?

SCHOOLEY'S MOUNTAIN is a broad plateau in the northern part of New Jersey, 1,200 feet above 
tidewater, overlooking the Musconetcoug Valley on the north and German Valley on the south. The 
temperature averagesabout ten degrees below New York and Philadelphia during the 4 day, and 15 to 
20 during the night, being cool in day and dry at night, and entirely void of mists and 'heavy dews so 
common to places of lesser altitude. 

THE CHALYBEATE SPRING, situated half a mile from the "Heath House," has been long 
celebrated as a chalybeate water of great merit, and is an excellent tonic. 

THE HEATH HOUSE AND COTTAGES consist of several detached buildings, none of them over 
three stories in height, with accommodations for 350 persons, and are situated within a beautiful lawn 
of twentv-five acres, upon which is a large base ball ground, tennis courts and a good bicycle track. 
The rooms are pleasant in all. One building is reserved exclusively for families, the rooms all com- 
municating. Another building is arranged for adults. This arrangement is designed to accommodate 
those who desire quiet. 

THE WATER SUPPLY AND DRAINAGE of the house are perfect, as attested to by Sanitary En- 
gineer Charles F. Wingate, of New York, and Dr. A. N Bell, of The Sanitarian. There is a good Livery, 
Billiard Room, Bowling Alleys and evening Music by an Orchestra hired for the season. There is also 
a neat stage for private theatricals. 

The table is furnished with milk and butter from the adjacent farms, vegetables in great variety 
fresh from our own garden, and meats and fish from the best New York markets. 

There is a very pretty church near the Heath House, where there are regular services the year 
round. The seats are free. Direct telegraph communication is available with every part of the country. 
There is a telephone in the hotel connecting with different parts of the country and -with physicians' 
office.
